Model-Free Precise in-Hand Manipulation with a 3D-Printed Tactile Gripper

Abstract: Abstract-The use of tactile feedback for precision manipulation in robotics still lags far behind human capabilities. This study has two principal aims: 1) to demonstrate in-hand reorientation of grasped objects through active tactile manipulation; and 2) to present the development of a novel TacTip sensor and a GR2 gripper platform for tactile manipulation. Through the use of Bayesian active perception algorithms, the system successfully achieved inhand reorientation of cylinders of different diameters (20, 2… Show more

“…The pin deflections can accurately characterize contact location, depth, object curvature/sharpness, edge angle, shear and slip. For more details, we refer to recent studies with this tactile sensor [6]- [14], [38]- [42].…”

“…In a major departure from recent work with the TacTip optical biomimetic sensor, here we predict the percepts directly from tactile images with a deep CNN. Prior work with this sensor has used specialised preprocessing to detect then track the pin positions [6]- [14], [38]- [42]. Here, this preprocessing is subsumed into the trained neural network.…”

“…The first TacTip generation was used for shape recognition [8], manipulation [9], edge detection [10], object exploration [11] and topography reconstruction [12]. The image processing algorithm described in [10] used morphological operators in order to detect edges in real time, which was a clear need for the robotic fingertip.…”

“…The image processing algorithm described in [10] used morphological operators in order to detect edges in real time, which was a clear need for the robotic fingertip. Later, the sensor was integrated with soft robots [13] and robotic hands [9]. In order to detect surface texture, the previously smooth outer skin surface was improved by bumps positioned directly over the papillae pins [14], [15].…”

“…Rigid grippers have the advantages of high precision control with the ease of integrating tactile, position, and torque sensors [9]. A stable grasping force and dexterous manipulation of the object can be achieved with force and position feedback [10]. However, rigid grippers are lacking adaptability, and they are prone to cause damages when manipulating very fragile and soft objects.…”
