Abstract:The research field of nongrasping manipulation is a maturing area in robotic motion control. However, the common principles of motion planning for nongrasping manipulation systems have not yet been established. This paper proposes the concept of virtual connecting manipulation as a generalized motion planning framework for nongrasping manipulation systems. As a preliminary result, we had previously realized a flower-stick juggling task called "propeller motion" using an actual experimental system. In this pape… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
