Call for papers: full paper (4-8 pages) submission deadline Feb 2010

 

 

About the Workshop:

This workshop intends to bring together the leading researchers and industrial innovators in safe and simple grasping technologies, in particular in underactuated grasping, in order to discuss promising research directions and strategies to meet the upcoming challenges.

 

Interactive sessions and hardware demonstrations of grasping devices designed and developed by the attendees are going to make this workshop lively and in-depth.

 

 

Workshop Objectives:

1. Overview of the state of the art in the field of underactuated grasping

2. Share lessons learnt

3. Identify avenues for the industrial application of underactuated robotic hands

4. Identify open issues in the theoretical framework and define new collaborative research questions

 

 

Call for Papers:

We solicit papers (4-8 pages) on the following topics:

1. Papers discussing lessons learnt from the analysis, synthesis and application of underactuated hands

2. Papers discussing new hypotheses, ideas or concepts for new research directions

3. Papers on grasp performance definition, calculation and measurement

4. Papers on modeling or simulation of underactuated grasping

5. Any other topic matching the objectives of this workshop
