A popular-science presentation explores PhD research on in-hand sliding manipulation, using tactile sensing and friction modeling to explain why a robot slowly drops an object.
For engineers building robotic manipulation systems, understanding why a gripper loses an object is critical. This presentation highlights the role of tactile sensing and friction modeling in diagnosing such failures, which is a step toward better observability of in-hand manipulation.

The presentation focuses on in-hand sliding manipulation with robotic grippers.
Tactile sensing and friction modeling are central to the explanation.
The simple parallel gripper is considered in the research.
