RHGM Meetings

Please join us for a series of teleconferences lead by NIST and sponsored by IEEE RAS Technical Committee on Robotic Hands Grasping and Manipulation (RHGM) to address grasp performance metrics and benchmarks.  With your help, we will identify key competencies and characteristics of robot systems with the notion that a robust set of formalized evaluations and benchmarks can help to match robotic system capabilities to end-user needs as well as to help provide developers and researchers insight for improving their hardware and software designs. Please consider participating in this worthwhile effort and feel free to pass this information to other colleagues who may also be interested in participating. Meetings will be announced using the RHGM mail list. Below is a listing of meeting minutes from past meetings. We thank all those who have attended and for the valuable exchange of ideas.
