Partial Caging?
Incomplete confinement
• Caging: a geometrical capturing by robots in
position-controlled.
• The captured object can escape from the hand, but it
is difficult.
• Taking advantage for robot hands with mechanical
restriction.
Objective
• To determine robot configuration that prevent the
object well from escaping

Summary
Evaluating efficient configuration of robot hand
• For capturing objects and confining them geometrically (without any
force sensing and control)
Evaluation indexes:
• Difficulty of escaping from the hand (DoEs)
• Ease of entering the hand (EoEn)
Assumption
• Two-fingered planar hand
Simulation Results
• DoEs decreases corresponding to the width between the fingertips
• EoEn seldom changes at a certain range of angle of the fingertips
Which hand posture is good for confinement?
Fish trap
Partial caging = Incomplete confinement
• Caging: a geometrical capturing by robots even in position-
controlled.
• The captured object can escape from the hand, but it is difficult.
=The object can enter the hand.
• Available for robot hands with mechanical restriction.
Advantages of using Geometrical Features
• Easier strategies to grasp objects (e.g. ring-shape)
• As fault-tolerance system when grasp contacts break

Partial caging
The constrained object can escape form incomplete surrounding
= It can enter the semi-closed region
Fish trap
Anisotropy of constraint
Is it possible to acquire an
ability of grasping without any
finger control?
Motivation of applying partial caging
• To take advantage of geometrical constraint
• To apply caging grasps to robot hands with mechanical
restriction
• To explorer the ability of confining an object without
any control feedback
Simulation results
• Changing angle of the fingertips
• Discussion on effect of the angle to
facilitate the object to escape
●:Initial position of object
●:Fingers
●:Locus of moving object

Evaluation settings
The robot hand
• Looks like a semi-closed box with a door
• The planar robot hand is manipulated randomly by a 2 DOF
manipulator
Evaluation indexes:
• Difficulty of escaping from the hand (DoEs)
• Ease of entering the hand (EoEn)
Simulation settings
• The average elapsed time is calculated from 5,000 times
• The gate (fingertips) is closing when the angle is positive,
and vise versa

even in position-controlled.
• The captured object can escape from the hand,
but it is difficult.
=The object can enter the hand.

Advantages of using Geometrical Features
• Easier strategies to grasp objects (e.g. ring-

• As fault-tolerance system when grasp contacts
break
Evaluation of Finger Configuration for PartialCaging / *S. Makita (NIT, Sasebo Coll., Japan) and K. Nagata (AIST, Japan)
Two factors affecting the evaluation scores
Retention of the object and getting over the gate
• The object tends to stay at the foot of the fingertip when the angle of
the fingertip is negative
Width of the goal (gap between fingertips)
• The width of goal entrance decreases according to the angle of the
fingertips

Editor's Notes

  1. In this research, we focus on evaluation of robot hand configuration for a geometric strategy to capture an object. (We investigated which posture of the hand is suitable to confine the object without any finger motion.)
  2. (I explain you what is partial caging. Partial caging can be defined as an incomplete confinement by robots. As some of you know, caging is a geometrical capturing strategy by robots, where position-controlled robots surround the object. The geometrical constraint has some advantages for robotic manipulation as supplement of force closure grasp, but complete caging is sometimes difficult for robot hands to achieve due to mechanical limitation. Thus, we consider PARTIAL caging to take advantages of geometrical constraints for such robot hands, (as incomplete confinement.) m
  3. (This is a summary of our presentation.) We evaluate efficient configuration of robot hand for capturing. For example, seeing these figure, a circular object is partially confined in the planar hand, and it can move inside the hand. And then, we’d like to know which hand posture is suitable for confinement without any finger motion, that is, when the robot hand is (assumed to be) in position-controlled. This situation is similar to fish traps, (which has a tapered gate and a fish can pass through here. According to the character of the fish, a certain direction of passing facilitate fishes to enter the opening. On the other hand, the opposite direction makes it difficult for fishes to escape from the trap passing through the gap. It suggests that robot hands like fish traps could acquire such ability to make objects almost inescapable without any control and sensing. We propose two scores as evaluation indexes: one is difficulty of escaping from the hand. It has been already presented in other previous works on caging and partial caging. And another is ease of entering the semi-closed region. As a results, we can find that a suitable finger posture is present. that represents how easy does the object in free movement enter inside the robot hand through the gap of the fingers.
  4. As an introduction of partial caging, we consider a two-fingered planar robot hand like that. The evaluation index can be defined as the elapsed time to escape from the semi-closed confinement. (And we introduce two index scores: one denotes the time that the object elapses to escape from the hand,) and another is elapsed time to enter the hand from a certain limited region drawn by the dots line.
  5. The evaluation score of partial caging quality can be defined as this division. We tried 5,000 times simulations for each hand posture and evaluated how difficult the object can pass through the gap. As a results, fingertip angle with about 10 deg like that figure is suitable to snap and capture the object. These two scores lead an evaluation index for partial caging. When the score is high, the form of the robot hand is assumed to be suitable to capture the object and prevent it from escaping even without any control feedback.
  6. We have more results with changing the parameters of the simulation. We’d like to discuss with you on the concept of partial caging by robot hands and our results.
