Abstract
When we think of robots that in our daily life, hand and eye systems a re the key components for the adaptation mechanism to the environment. This paper intends to show research work for humanoid robotic arms. A new design concept for human-friendly robotic manipulators, which we call 'the third-arm robot (TTAR)', is proposed and the necessary mecha nisms for the future of such a robot-in-daily-life are discussed.
