Abstract: This study proposes a novel lightweight robotic gripper with a high-payload capacity using shape-memory-alloy (SMA) actuators and a self-locking mechanism. The multi-joint fingers of the ...
Abstract: This article suggests a self-sensing gripper that is driven by a single Shape memory alloy (SMA) spring to enable precise self-sensing. The gripper that is in normally open mode consists of ...
