MechTac: A multifunctional tendon-linked optical tactile sensor for in/out-the-field-of-view perception with deep learning (2023)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Tactile sensors can be used for motion detection and object perception in robot manipulation. The contact detection within the camera's visual inspection area has been well-developed, but perception outside the field of view of the camera is overlook...

Multi-fingered tactile servoing for grasping adjustment under partial observation (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

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.

A modified LSTM model for Chinese sign language recognition using leap motion (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

At present, there are about 70 million deaf people using sign language in the world, but for most normal people, it is difficult to understand the meaning of the sign language expression. Therefore, it is of great importance to explore the ways of re... Read More about A modified LSTM model for Chinese sign language recognition using leap motion.
