Enhancing our understanding of human fine manipulation skills and advancing robot dexterity in grasping

From surgery to watchmaking, fine-manipulation skills highly rely on the dexterity afforded by both hands. Coordination is key to human dexterity. Specifically, humans need not only to govern the abundant intrinsic degrees of freedom (DOFs) to allocate con ...

Hand pose selection in a bimanual fine-manipulation task

Aude Billard, Kunpeng Yao

Many daily tasks involve the collaboration of both hands. Humans dexterously adjust hand poses and modulate the forces exerted by fingers in response to task demands. Hand pose selection has been intensively studied in unimanual tasks, but little work has ...

Tribological Approach to the Watch Movements

Valentine Agnès Madeleine Magnin

Mechanical watches are complex and sensitive systems that have to maintain a faultless precision over their lifetime. However, this precision can be altered by disturbances occurring during the functioning time, such as friction, lubricant drying, or wear, ...

An inverse optimization approach to understand human acquisition of kinematic coordination in bimanual fine manipulation tasks

Aude Billard, Kunpeng Yao

Tasks that require the cooperation of both hands and arms are common in human everyday life. Coordination helps to synchronize in space and temporally motion of the upper limbs. In fine bimanual tasks, coordination enables also to achieve higher degrees of ...

Towards Understanding of Human Kinematic Coordination Patterns in Bimanual Fine Manipulation Tasks

Aude Billard, Kunpeng Yao, Anaïs Betsabeh Haget

Skills that require the collaboration of both arms are common in humans’ everyday activities, and the coordination of upper limbs is key to human bimanual dexterity. The Skill Acquisition in Humans and Robots (ERC) project aims at obtaining a better unders ...

Appearance of polished 18 karat gold surfaces: linking aesthetics to surface features

Leili Batooli

Impeccable appearance of surfaces is a key constraint in high-end jewelry and watch manufacturing. Based on long tradition in the industry, appearance of products is assessed by trained individuals through visual inspection in designated intervals on the p ...
