书目名称 | Distributed Manipulation | 编辑 | Karl F. Böhringer,Howie Choset | 视频video | | 图书封面 |  | 描述 | Distributed manipulation effects motion on objects through alarge number of points of contact. The primary benefit of distributedmanipulators is that many small inexpensive mechanisms can move andtransport large heavy objects. In fact, each individual component issimple, but their combined effect is quite powerful. Furthermore,distributed manipulators are fault-tolerant because if one componentbreaks, the other components can compensate for the failure and thewhole system can still perform its task. Finally, distributedmanipulators can perform a variety of tasks in parallel. .Distributed manipulation can be performed by many types of mechanismsat different scales. Due to the recent advances of MEMS(micro-electro-mechanical system) technology, it has become feasibleto quickly manufacture distributed micro-manipulators at low cost. Onesuch system is an actuator array where hundreds of micro-scaledactuators transport and manipulate small objects that rest on them.Macroscopic versions of the actuator array have also been developedand analyzed. Another form of distributed manipulation is derived froma vibrating plate, and teams of mobile robots have been used to herdlarge objects into d | 出版日期 | Book 2000 | 关键词 | CMOS; actuator; algorithms; autonom; communication; design; distributed systems; microelectromechanical sys | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4615-4545-3 | isbn_softcover | 978-1-4613-7051-2 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-4615-4545-3 | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media New York 2000 |
