…Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering. NTU technology first seen in Ikea Bot Mastering “touch sensitivity” and humanlike dexterity has been a holy grail for roboticists, said Pham. Programming force controllers is extremely complicated, requiring long hours to perfect the grip just for a specific task, he said. Current robots in the market have either high accuracy but low agility, where robots perform the same movements repeatedly such as in a car factory, or low accuracy but high agility, such as robots handling packages of different sizes in logistics. NTU scientists developed the force-feedback technology and demonstrated it with the “Ikea Bot,”…
