Real-time Friction Estimation for Grip Force Control
2021 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ROBOTICS AND AUTOMATION (ICRA 2021)(2021)
摘要
An important capability of humans when performing dexterous precision gripping tasks is our ability to feel both the weight and slipperiness of an object in real-time, and adjust our grip force accordingly. In this paper, we present for the first time a fully-instrumented version of our PapillArray tactile sensor concept, which can sense grip force, object weight, and incipient slip and friction, all in real-time. We demonstrate the real-time estimation of friction and measurement of 3D force from PapillArray sensors mounted on each finger of a two-finger gripper, combined with a closed-loop grip-force control algorithm that dynamically applies a near-optimal grip force to avoid dropping objects of varying weight and friction. A vertical lifting task was performed using an object with varying weight and friction, and with some common household items. After intentionally adding a 20% safety margin on the target grip force, the actual grip force applied was only 9-30 % greater than that required to avoid slip. Future work will focus on incorporating real-time torque measurement into the grip force feedback control. This will significantly advance the state-of-the-art in artificial tactile sensing and bring us closer to robotic dexterity.
