• Design a gripper finger with tactile sensing capabilities:
  • Design the gripper so that it may be used in heavy duty loading situations and hazardous and contaminated environments
  • Provide 3D sensory feedback to map surface contour for general inspection (identification and localization including position and orientation )

• A Patented 10x10 matrix probe array gripper finger which securely fixtures objects of any shape or contour and in any position or orientation:
  • Stainless steel probes slide in a metal bearing guide block
  • Probes retract and extend to contact the part surface
  • Probe travel is measured with miniature fiber optic digital encoders
  • 3D Pattern Recognition Software matches sensor image date with Library of Parts
