Design of a Variable Stiffness Quasi-Direct Drive Cable-Actuated Tensegrity Robot

ICRA 2026poster

Tensegrity robots excel in tasks requiring extreme levels of deformability and robustness. However, there are challenges in state estimation and payload versatility due to their high number of degrees of freedom and unconventional shape. This paper introduces a modular three-bar tensegrity robot fea…

Tensegrity Robot Proprioceptive State Estimation With Geometric Constraints

RA-L 2025

Tensegrity robots,characterized by a synergistic assembly of rigid rods and elastic cables, form robust structures that are resistant to impacts. However, this design introduces complexities in kinematics and dynamics, complicating control and state estimation. This work presents a novel propriocept

Omni-Roach: A Legged Robot Capable of Traversing Multiple Types of Large Obstacles and Self-Righting

ICRA 2022poster

Robots excel at avoiding obstacles but struggle to traverse complex 3-D terrain with cluttered large obstacles. By contrast, insects like cockroaches excel at doing so. Recent research in our lab elucidated how locomotor transitions emerge from locomotor-environment interaction for diverse locomotor…
