Robotic Gripper Allowing for In-Hand Manipulation

This video shows a design of a simple, industrial feasible end effector developed at the University of South Carolina that allows for in-hand manipulation of parts. This end effector can be utilized in conjunction with a vision system to eliminate parts feeders and be able to pick parts straight
from bins. The design utilizes passive joints that, when in a particular configuration, align (a self-motion singularity) to allow in-hand manipulation without regrasping or finger gaiting.
