Abstract

Arm-hand subsystem, as the manipulator and end-effecter of a humanoid robot, is important from application point of view since humanoid robot is expected to help people in the future. A powerful arm-hand system can perform as many tasks as human beings do. However, owe to limited space and weight, humanoid robots were usually equipped with simple-structured upper limbs, especially for hand. In this paper, a multi-DOF and dexterous arm-hand module is presented, which owns lightweight and compact structure with incremental encoder, absolute encoder in each joint as well as force/torque sensor to feedback the force information. Moreover, the arm-hand module adopts distributed control system for joint actuators, which is compact and easy to be installed inside.
