Grasping Force Control of Multi-Fingered Robotic Hands through Tactile Sensing for Object Stabilization

open access: yesSensors, 2020
Grasping force control is important for multi-fingered robotic hands to stabilize the grasped object. Humans are able to adjust their grasping force and react quickly to instabilities through tactile sensing.

Tactile Sensing in the Octopus

open access: yesScholarpedia, 2013
All animals must have a sense of touch, if only to avoid damage. The problem is to discover how much information about their environment the animals can derive from this sense. Octopus vulgaris has proved to be a useful tool for the investigation of how much a soft-bodied invertebrate animal can derive from contacts with its environment because it ...
