The integration of pressure sensors into robotic grippers, such as the UMI gripper from XELA Robotics, significantly improves gripping accuracy. Unlike traditional methods that rely solely on motor current and position, pressure sensors provide critical real-time data on contact interactions, enabli...
Researchers at KAIST have developed a soft, 3D-printed robotic hand using machine learning to create a highly stretchable elastomer. This material can stretch over six times its original length and has been successfully demonstrated in gripping a 1-kilogram water bottle and fragile items like eggs....
A team of researchers from Korea has developed a soft 3D-printed robotic hand capable of gently gripping various objects, including fragile items like eggs and heavier ones like a 1 kg water bottle. This advancement utilizes a newly identified material that can stretch over six times its original le...
A novel gripping mechanism and dual manipulator robotic system designed for apple harvesting using a tractor has been developed. This innovative system aims to enhance the efficiency of apple picking, addressing the labor shortages faced in agriculture. The significance of this development lies in...
A new robotic hand has been developed that can switch between multiple grippers using just one motor. This innovation addresses the need for robots to handle a wide variety of objects across different environments, including factories and households. The ability to manage diverse objects with a sin...
