Soft Electrically Actuated Quadruped (SEAQ) - Integrating a Flex Circuit Board and Elastomeric Limbs for Versatile Mobility

RA-L 2019

Like their natural mammalian and reptilian counterparts, legged soft robots require robust walking dynamics and untethered functionality in order to swiftly maneuver through unstructured environments. Progress in this domain requires careful selection of soft limb actuators and integration of power

Echinoderm-Inspired Tube Feet for Robust Robot Locomotion and Adhesion

RA-L 2018

Movement in echinoderms is facilitated by the coordinated activity of thousands of individually addressable and reversibly adhesive tube feet. To investigate the potential applicability of these unique biological actuators as a locomotory structure for robotics applications, we describe here the des
