Bio-Mimetic Finger: Human Like Morphology, Control & Motion Planning for Intelligent Robot & Prosthesis

Abstract

The aim of this hapter is to summarize results we have obtained over the past five years of the bio-mimetic approach to robotics and/or prosthetic applications . Focusing on multiple degrees of freedom (dof) and multi-articulated limbs we will suggest technical solutions for controlling and planning the motion of an artificial limb in such a way that it will match the natural pattern of ‘natural movement’.
