Abstract: This paper considers an innovative robotic gripper. The gripper uses fewer number of actuators than it has degrees of freedom. Also, it is capable of conforming to different shapes and sizes of object through autonomous. sequential switching of the actuator drives between links. A friction-limited mechanical switch is used for this purpose. A mechanical model of the gripper is presented. It includes a contact analysis and a motion analysis for planar gripping.
