Dynamic Manipulation Inspired by Handling of Pizza Peel This work discusses a dynamic manipulation for a disk-like object on a single gripper plate. Both the position and the orientation of object are dynamically controlled. Experimental results are shown for confirming the basic idea, where we utilize a high-speed single gripper manipulator.
Dynamic Manipulation of a Deformable Object by Controlling Contact Area This work discusses a dynamic manipulation for a deformable object based on the pizza handling mechanism. We show how to increase the rotational speed of the manipulated object by using the self-deforming effect generated by the high-speed plate motion.
Plastic Deformation Control towards Active Shaping of a Rheological Object This work discusses a plastic deformation control towards the active shaping of a rheological object by considering the characteristics of viscoelasticity. Focusing on the viscous element and the integral force, we propose a control method for generating the desired plastic deformation.
Dynamic Capturing Strategy for a Stick-Shaped Object Based on Friction Independent Collision This work discusses dynamic capturing strategies where a stick-shaped object with both translational and rotational velocity is completely stopped by two robotic fingers. The proposed strategies are demonstrated by using a two-fingered high-speed robot hand with the assistance of a high-speed vision system.
