08:09 - 2018/11/24 MultiChoiceGripper Robot: Smart Robotic Arm
MultiChoiceGripper Robot is a gripper that adjusts to different tasks. The pneumatic gripper is inspired by the human hand and is modelled on the thumb, thanks to which humans are also able to grip a wide variety of shapes quickly and easily. The gripper unites a combination of different grip types. Its fingers can therefore be switched over so that they can either grip in a parallel or centric manner – without requiring any conversion.
08:35 - 2018/11/21 ROBIOSS Robot: Smart Hand Robot
ROBIOSS Robot is a fully actuated bio-inspired four-degree-of-freedom (DOF) finger driven by four actuators. It has been developed with the goal to replicate fine manipulation with fingertips with a high degree of interaction with the environment. The robotic hand has fingers whose design is based on a human anatomical finger model.
08:53 - 2018/11/20 Dexter Hand Robot: Smart Hand Robot
Dexter Hand Robot which uses sensors and a camera to "feel" its environment and act intelligently. The prosthetic is an intuitive, and intelligent alternative to existing prosthetic hands. Dexter can adjust its position, orientation, and grip based on visual and force feedback to detect objects, determine appropriate grasps, and maintain object orientation without the need for extensive user input.
08:23 - 2018/11/19 Sandia Hand Robot: Smart Hand Robot
Sandia Hand Robot consists of a hand frame that supports a set of identical finger modules that magnetically attach and detach from the hand frame. The finger modules consist of several sensor systems that enable the hand to perform complex manipulation tasks and is supported by several imaging systems to increase function and performance.
08:15 - 2018/11/18 X-Hand Robot: Smart Hand Robot
X-Hand Robot describes a general design theory of the anthropomorphic hand. The goal of the project is replicating the natural grasping functions of the human hand so it becomes feasible using the designed hand with a few actuators via biosignal based control. The designed prosthetic hand not only has the ability to implement the human grasping activities of daily living but also replicates the natural grasping behaviors of the human hand.
08:32 - 2018/11/17 AirPenguin Robot: Smart Flying Robot
AirPenguin Robot which fly as a group, accurately simulate the movements of their natural counterparts: thanks to their 3-D structure with Fin Ray Effect at the front and back, they glide through the water just like real penguins. Their passively twisting flippers enable the penguins to fly both forwards and backwards. The buoyancy of the ultra-light AirPenguins is assured by way of a helium-filled ballonet.
08:34 - 2018/11/14 Spacer Robot: Electric Aircraft Tugs
Spacer Robot is a remote control operated airplane pushback tug that will reduce workload at airports and increase the pushback precision by providing the controller a wide angled view and the ability to confirm the aircraft's exact position at any time. In addition, the required training time will be shorter and more efficient in comparison to the conventional tug driver training.
08:30 - 2018/11/13 IHR Robot: Smart Home Robot
IHR Robot is a smart home robot that comes to the rescue. Designed by Wanheng Chen for Sichuan Konka Smart Technology, the conceptual robot works by monitoring your home at all times and making decisions for you. This could include activating your autonomous vacuum if the floors are dirty, turning the alarm system on and locking the doors if you aren't home and much more.
08:45 - 2018/11/12 MSRR Robot: Smart Modular Robot
MSRR Robot is the adaption to complex environments and changeable tasks. A critical difficulty is that the operator should regulate a large number of control parameters of modules. In this paper, a novel locomotion control model based on chaotic Central Pattern Generator (CPG) is proposed. The chaotic CPG could produce various rhythm signals or chaotic signal only by changing one parameter.
08:57 - 2018/11/11 AquaSimian Robot: Smart Industrial Robot
AquaSimian Robot includes capabilities to detect and autonomously respond to any leaks or motor faults by disconnecting motor power when the system is in an off-nominal state and notifying the operator through LED lighting on the Light Lids that seal the actuator assembly housings. A custom 3-function robotic gripper mounted to the force torque sensor allows dexterous yet robust interaction with underwater task panels.
