Braking Control in Clutched-Elastic Robots: Coordinating the Underactuation-to-Actuation Transition

IROS 2025

Robots with intrinsic joint elasticity can perform highly dynamic manoeuvres by leveraging energy storage and release, enabling explosive motions such as throwing. By augmenting elastic robots with clutch mechanisms, link decoupling can be used to fully exploit inertial coupling effects and gravitat

Optimally Controlling the Timing of Energy Transfer in Elastic Joints: Experimental Validation of the Bi-Stiffness Actuation Concept

RA-L 2023

Elastic actuation taps into elastic elements' energy storage for dynamic motions beyond rigid actuation. While Series Elastic Actuators (SEA) and Variable Stiffness Actuators (VSA) are highly sophisticated, they do not fully provide control over energy transfer timing. To overcome this problem on th
