Research Abstract |
Four fingered-thirteen joint multi-fingered robot hand was built, where small sized motor in each joint of robot finger and force sensor in each finger-tip were installed. First, basic motion control system were established to realize grasping, manipulation and regrasping for handling obstacles. Secondly, application of multi-fingered robot hand on health care fields was considered. Expert massage robot systems were built. Massage. data of expert therapist were saved in computer, and those data were reproduced by robot hand, considering redundancy of robot finger. Pressure sheet sensor was applied to measure the finger force of therapist. Furhermore, force sensor were installed at the each fingertip of robot hand to: feedback expert massage motion exactly. Through a lot of experiments, it was demonstai ated that the present expert massage robot by teaching and playback approach, can realize the expert massage motion.
