Kinetic asymmetries in gait caused by neuropathology are a major factor in mobility deficiency. Gait perturbation training has shown promise for rehabilitating neurological gait asymmetry, but the transfer of benefits from treadmill training to overground walking is limited. To enable kinetic gait p
Soft manipulators made of deformable materials have great promise in applications that require additional flexibility and compliance; however, these characteristics also make them difficult to simulate accurately and quickly. The lack of a fast and accurate simulator prevents motion planners from ge…
In this work, we present a novel approach for modeling, and classifying between, the system load states introduced when constructing staged soft arm configurations. Through a two stage approach: (1) an LSTM calibration routine is used to identify the current load state then (2) a control input gener…
