Abstract

In this paper we propose a new class of robots specialized in grasping and manipulating objects. Their main feature, which differentiates them from the rest of the already known prototypes belonging to the field of grasping robots, is their capability of adapting to the shape and the dimension of the object that has to be manipulated. This extra ability has been obtained through implementing a specific form of artificial intelligence based on a mathematical model used for computer analysing the video images gathered by the robot form the environment through some sensors that mime the artificial sight.
