Dexterous Manipulation: Robot Arms - Sensing and Controls

The National Institute of Standards and Technology held a workshop at the last Automate 2013. A lot of interesting content was discussed and we wanted to shared this information with you. This is why we created a series of articles on the lectures at this event. You can see all the articles in this series at the end of this blog. The last technical session of this workshop was about dexterous robotic arms. Representatives from KUKA, Rethink Robotics and Yaskawa were there to discuss the challenges of flexible robot arms through sensing and force control.
