Journal ArticleDOI
Human-Inspired Robotic Grasp Control With Tactile Sensing
TL;DR: A novel robotic grasp controller that allows a sensorized parallel jaw gripper to gently pick up and set down unknown objects once a grasp location has been selected, inspired by the control scheme that humans employ for such actions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Improving contact realism through event-based haptic feedback
TL;DR: A new method for generating appropriate transients inverts a dynamic model of the haptic device to determine the motor forces required to create prerecorded acceleration profiles at the user's fingertips, providing an important new avenue for increasing the realism of contact in haptic interactions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Vibrotactile Display: Perception, Technology, and Applications
TL;DR: The relevant human vibrotactile perceptual capabilities are explained, the main types of commercial vib rotactile actuators are detailed, and how to build both monolithic and localized vibrotACTile displays are described.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Deep learning for tactile understanding from visual and haptic data
TL;DR: In this paper, a purely visual haptic prediction model was proposed to enable a robot to "feel" without physical interaction, and they demonstrate that using both visual and physical interaction signals together yields more accurate haptic classification.
Journal ArticleDOI
Creating Realistic Virtual Textures from Contact Acceleration Data
TL;DR: This paper employs a sensorized handheld tool to capture the feel of a given texture, reduces the three-dimensional acceleration signals to a perceptually equivalent one-dimensional signal, and uses linear predictive coding to distill this raw haptic information into a database of frequency-domain texture models.
