Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we propose active bone-conducted sound sensing for estimating the joint angle of the finger.The sensing systems, which consists of an oscillatory actuator and a contact microphone, are developed as ring-type devices. The joint angle of finger is estimated using an unnoticeable vibration. Additionally, white noise is input for estimating hand poses, and three hand poses are estimated using support vector machine. We implemented a robot interface system which can control gripper in a simulation. We confirmed that the robot could be controlled using proposed system through experiments.
