This paper identifies the culprits of naively com- bining learning-based controllers and state estimators for robotic in-hand manipulation. Specifically, we tackle the chal- lenging task of purely ...

When most of us pick up an object, we don't have to think about how to orient it in our hand. It's something that comes naturally to us as we learn to navigate the world. That's something that allows ...

Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University have come up with a novel way of improving robots' inspection and manipulation skills. The team fitted a small camera to the hand of the machine, allowing it ...

Our experience in developing, building and using dexterous robot hands reaches back to 1993. Our work scope covers all areas from multisensory mechatronic hand design up to control of the hands ...
