RESUMO

In this study, a comprehensive approach for sensing object stiffness through the pincer grasping of soft pneumatic grippers (SPGs) is presented. This study was inspired by the haptic sensing of human hands that allows us to perceive object properties through grasping. Many researchers have tried to imitate this capability in robotic grippers. The association between gripper performance and object reaction must be determined for this purpose. However, soft pneumatic actuators (SPA), the main components of SPGs, are extremely compliant. SPA compliance makes the determination of the association challenging. Methodologically, the connection between the behaviors of grasped objects and those of SPAs was clarified. A new concept of SPA modeling was then introduced. A method for stiffness sensing through SPG pincer grasping was developed based on this connection, and demonstrated on four samples. This method was validated through compression testing on the same samples. The results indicate that the proposed method yielded similar stiffness trends with slight deviations in compression testing. A main limitation in this study was the occlusion effect, which leads to dramatic deviations when grasped objects greatly deform. This is the first study to enable stiffness sensing and SPG grasping to be carried out in the same attempt. This study makes a major contribution to research on soft robotics by progressing the role of sensing for SPG grasping and object classification by offering an efficient method for acquiring another effective class of classification input. Ultimately, the proposed framework shows promise for future applications in inspecting and classifying visually indistinguishable objects.
