Multi-purpose tactile perception based on deep learning in a new tendon-driven optical tactile sensor (2022)
Conference Proceeding
Zhao, Z., & Lu, Z. (2022). Multi-purpose tactile perception based on deep learning in a new tendon-driven optical tactile sensor. In 2022 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS) (2099-2104). https://doi.org/10.1109/iros47612.2022.9981477

In this paper, we create a new tendon-connected multi-functional optical tactile sensor, MechTac, for object perception in the field of view (TacTip) and location of touching points in the blind area of vision (TacSide). In a multi-point touch task,... Read More about Multi-purpose tactile perception based on deep learning in a new tendon-driven optical tactile sensor.

Multi-fingered tactile servoing for grasping adjustment under partial observation (2022)
Conference Proceeding
Liu, H., Huang, B., Li, Q., Zheng, Y., Ling, Y., Lee, W., …Yang, C. (2022). Multi-fingered tactile servoing for grasping adjustment under partial observation. In 2022 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS) (7781-7788). https://doi.org/10.1109/IROS47612.2022.9981464

Grasping of objects using multi-fingered robotic hands often fails due to small uncertainties in the hand motion control and the object's pose estimation. To tackle this problem, we propose a grasping adjustment strategy based on tactile seroving. Ou... Read More about Multi-fingered tactile servoing for grasping adjustment under partial observation.

Investigation of fracture process zone development in quasi-isotropic carbon/epoxy laminates using in situ and ex situ X-ray Computed Tomography (2022)
Journal Article

Presentation / Conference
McEwen, L., Webber, A., Gorell Barnes, L., Gopinath, D., Hobbs, L., Deave, T., …Fogg Rogers, L. (2022, December). Voices in a Pandemic (VIP-CLEAR): Using deep mapping to explore children’s changing perceptions and experiences during COVID-19 ‘recovery’. Presented at UK Alliance for Disaster Research Annual Conference 2022, Edinburgh Climate Change Institute (ECCI)

Children are unheard voices within the COVID-19 pandemic. We are unaware how intersections of complex factors in specific social settings have impacted their perceptions and are determining what ‘recovery’ means. ‘Voices in a Pandemic: Children’s Loc...
