Most traditional methods for grasp quality evaluation suffer from non-uniformity of the wrench space and a dependence on the scale and choice of the reference frame. To overcome these weaknesses, we present a grasp evaluation method based on disturbance force rejection under the assumption that the normal component of each individual contact force is less than one. The evaluation criterion is solved using an enhanced ray-shooting algorithm in which the geometry of the grasp wrench space is read by the support mapping. This evaluation procedure is very fast due to the efficiency of the ray-shooting algorithm without linearization of the friction cones. Based on a necessary condition for grasp quality improvement, a heuristic searching algorithm for polyhedral object regrasp is also proposed. It starts from an initial force-closure unit grasp configuration and iteratively improves the grasp quality to find the locally optimum contact points. The efficiency and effectiveness of the proposed algorithms are illustrated by a number of numerical examples.展开更多
