Abstract

A variety of kinematic chains exists which can be considered for application as robot hands. The designer must have a tool to know relatively which of them will possess greater grasp and rigidity. In this paper a numerical measure to estimate parallelism between the object and ground link (of the hand) is proposed. This measure can be used to compare the robot hands for grasp and rigidity.
