  • Abstract
    The approach in a stable grasp is examined for the 2-D case of a triangle in contrast with two fixed fingers and one moving finger without mass or friction. A large class of motions is found to result in an equilibrium grip. Realistic application of these results in three dimensions is discussed. Optimum target points for grasping poorly known objects are given
