Abstract :
Grasping, regrasping, and manipulation with an artificial hand being composed of several fingers require control strategies to assure reasonable cooperation of the fingers with respect to an object. This paper presents such concepts. They are verified by a hand with four hydraulic fingers, which together with control and power electronics, represent a typical mechatronic system.
