Gripper nomenclature :
The 2-Finger Gripper has two articulated fingers that each have two joints (two phalanxes per finger), as shown in Figure 1.1. The Gripper can engage up to
five points of contact with an object (two on each of the phalanges plus the palm). The fingers are under-actuated, meaning they have fewer motors than the
total number of joints. This configuration allows the fingers to automatically adapt to the shape of the object they grip and it also simplifies the control of the
Gripper.
