Bio-Inspired Grasping Controller for Sensorized 2-DoF Grippers
We present a holistic grasping controller, combining free-space position control and in-contact force-control for reliable grasping given uncertain object pose estimates. Employing tactile fingertip sensors, undesired object displacement during grasping is minimized by pausing the finger closing motion for individual joints on first contact until force-closure is established.

Evidence notes
- Experiments use TIAGo as the physical evaluation platform.
- The reported results provide an independent evaluation on TIAGo hardware.
