Author:Kleinhans, A; Rosman, Benjamin S; Michalik, M; Tripp, B; Detry, RDate:May 2015Autonomous grasping is a problem that receives continuous attention from our community because it is both key to many applications, and difficult to solve. The complexity of robot grasping is counter-intuitive. For us humans, planning a grasp ...Read more
Author:Rezai, O; Kleinhans, A; Matallanas, E; Selby, B; Tripp, BPDate:Oct 2014The monkey anterior intraparietal area (AIP) encodes visual information about three-dimensional object shape that is used to shape the hand for grasping. We modeled shape tuning in visual AIP neurons and its relationship with curvature and ...Read more
Author:Kleinhans, A; Thill, S; Rosman, Benjamin S; Detry, R; Tripp, BDate:Sep 2014The neural circuits that control grasping and perform related visual processing have been studied extensively in Macaque monkeys. We are developing a computational model of this system, in order to better understand its function, and to ...Read more
