Towards 3D Proprioception for Supernumerary Robotic Limbs: Design and Validation of a Mixed-Content Audio Feedback Scheme

RA-L 2026

Supernumerary robotic limbs (SRLs) are extra robotic appendages that require sensory-motor integration for intuitive control, yet most lack proprioceptive feedback. Existing approaches using vibrotactile or electrotactile cues often feel unnatural and offer limited resolution. We present a real-time

VarWrist: An Anthropomorphic Soft Wrist with Variable Stiffness

ICRA 2026poster

Robotic wrists play a crucial role in enhancing the dexterity and stability of robotic end-effectors. Existing rigid robotic wrists tend to be complex and lack flexibility, while soft robotic wrists often struggle with limited load-bearing capacity and lower accuracy. Human wrists feature multi-degr…

An Anthropomorphic Robotic Hand With a Soft-Rigid Hybrid Structure and Positive- Negative Pneumatic Actuation

RA-L 2023

Anthropomorphic robotic hands are seeking to achieve key features such as multi-degree-of-freedom motion ability, bi-directional actuation, high adaptability, and sufficient stiffness. In this research, we propose a 10 active degrees-of-freedom anthropomorphic robotic hand with a soft-rigid hybrid s

Facial Expressions-Controlled Flight Game With Haptic Feedback for Stroke Rehabilitation: A Proof-of-Concept Study

RA-L 2022

Most stroke patients suffer from a combination of motor and sensory dysfunction and central facial paralysis. Specific rehabilitation training is required to restore those functions. Current research focuses on developing stimulating and straightforward rehabilitation training processes so that pati

Fusing Topology Optimization and Pseudo-Rigid-Body Method For the Development of a Finger Exoskeleton

RA-L 2022

Robotic hand exoskeletons can assist people who suffer from hand.functional disabilities caused by a stroke. However, currently existing hand exoskeletons remain inadequate in terms of user-friendly design, lightweight structure, and accurate modeling of hand motion. In this study, a large displacem

Developing of A Rigid-Compliant Finger Joint Exoskeleton Using Topology Optimization Method

ICRA 2021poster

Robotic hand exoskeletons can provide assistance to people who suffer from hand functional disability or spinal cord injury (SCI). However, the current hand exoskeletons remain challenging with respect to having a user-friendly design that satisfies human motion with a lightweight structure. Here we…
