    • Basic Solid Mechanics for Tactile Sensing 

      Fearing, Ronald S.; Hollerbach, John M. (1984-03-01)
      In order to stably grasp objects without using object models, tactile feedback from the fingers is sometimes necessary. This feedback can be used to adjust grasping forces to prevent a part form slipping from a hand. ...

    • Simplified Grasping and Manipulation with Dextrous Robot Hands 

      Fearing, Ronald S. (1984-11-01)
      A method is presented for stably grasping 2 dimensional polygonal objects with a dextrous hand when object models are not avaiable. Basic constraints on object vertex angles are found for feasible grasping with two fingers. ...
