Feature matching is pivotal when using multi-view stereo (MVS) to reconstruct dense 3D models from calibrated images.This paper proposes PAC-MVSNet, which integrates perspective-aware convolution (PAC) and metadata-enhanced cost volumes to address the challenges in reflective and texture-less regions.PAC dynamically aligns convolutional kernels wit
Fluid Pressure Monitoring-Based Strategy for Delicate Grasping of Fragile Objects by A Robotic Hand with Fluid Fingertips
In this study, we propose a strategy for delicately grasping fragile objects using a robotic gripper with highly deformable fluid fingertips.In an earlier study, we developed a soft fingertip, referred to as a DIY Embroidery Ornament Kit fluid fingertip, which was fabricated from a deformable rubber bag filled with incompressible fluid.The proposed
