Abstract

A re-configurable three-fingered end effector for unstructured environments is introduced. This effector offers considerable flexibility over previous designs. The effector uses a controller that includes a set of high level commands to orient the gripper, together with a fuzzy logic approach to control the fingertip force, once contact has been made with the object.
