GelSight Svelte Hand: A Three-finger, Two-DoF, Tactile-rich, Low-cost Robot Hand for Dexterous Manipulation (2309.10886v1)
Published 19 Sep 2023 in cs.RO
Abstract: This paper presents GelSight Svelte Hand, a novel 3-finger 2-DoF tactile robotic hand that is capable of performing precision grasps, power grasps, and intermediate grasps. Rich tactile signals are obtained from one camera on each finger, with an extended sensing area similar to the full length of a human finger. Each finger of GelSight Svelte Hand is supported by a semi-rigid endoskeleton and covered with soft silicone materials, which provide both rigidity and compliance. We describe the design, fabrication, functionalities, and tactile sensing capability of GelSight Svelte Hand in this paper.
