Billard, AudeKragic, Danica2019-06-242019-06-242019-06-24201910.1126/science.aat8414https://infoscience.epfl.ch/handle/20.500.14299/158421Our ability to grab, hold, and manipulate objects involves our dexterous hands, our sense of touch, and feedback from our eyes and muscles that allows us to maintain a controlled grip. Billard and Kragic review the progress made in robotics to emulate these functions. Systems have developed from simple, pinching grippers operating in a fully defined environment, to robots that can identify, select, and manipulate objects from a random collection. Further developments are emerging from advances in computer vision, computer processing capabilities, and tactile materials that give feedback to the robot.RoboticsManipulationLearningtext::journal::journal article::research article
