The article presents a study on improving slip detection in robotic manipulation. It focuses on the macroscopic deformation of the fingertip’s soft structure and its role as a vibration medium for sensing. The proposed method uses vibration injection into the soft structure to magnify the microscopic incipient slip phenomena. The method’s effectiveness was tested on stick-ratio estimation and stick-ratio stabilization control during incipient slip. The results showed significant improvement over conventional methods.
