The Soft Compiler: A Web-Based Tool for the Design of Modular Pneumatic Circuits for Soft Robots

RA-L 2022

Developing soft circuits from individual soft logic gates poses a unique challenge: with increasing numbers of logic gates, the design and implementation of circuits lead to inefficiencies due to mathematically unoptimized circuits and wiring mistakes during assembly. It is therefore practically imp

Tube-Balloon Logic for the Exploration of Fluidic Control Elements

RA-L 2022

The control of pneumatically driven soft robots typically requires electronics. Microcontrollers are connected to power electronics that switch valves and pumps on and off. As a recent alternative, fluidic control methods have been introduced, in which soft digital logic gates permit multiple actuat
