Mechanical Design and Control Issues of a Dexterous Robotic Hand

Article Preview

Abstract:

The design and control problems involved in the development process of robotic grippers have been active research topics in the last three decades. In this paper it is presented a new developed dexterous robotic hand whose mechanical structure is based on a biomechatronic approach. The control system for this artificial hand relies on modern software and hardware components which allow precise positioning of the fingers.
