A Multi-modal Sensor Array for Safe Human-Robot Interaction and Mapping

ICRA 2019poster

In the future, human-robot interaction will include collaboration in close-quarters where the environment geometry is partially unknown. As a means for enabling such interaction, this paper presents a multi-modal sensor array capable of contact detection and localization, force sensing, proximity se…

Design Considerations and Redundancy Resolution for Variable Geometry Continuum Robots

ICRA 2018poster

Current multi-backbone continuum robots are limited to a constant cross-sectional diameter. This paper proposes a design alternative that overcomes this limitation. The ability to change the diameter of a continuum robot expands the repertoire of kinematic redundancy and enables kinematic parameter…
