Design of Deployable Soft Robots Through Plastic Deformation of Kirigami Structures

RA-L 2020

Kirigami-patterned mechanisms are an emergent class of deployable structure that are easy to fabricate and offer the potential to be integrated into deployable robots. In this letter, we propose a design methodology for robotic kirigami structures that takes into consideration the deformation, loadi

A Soft, Controllable, High Force Density Linear Brake Utilizing Layer Jamming

RA-L 2018

While much work has focused on the design of actuators for inputting energy into robotic systems, less work has been dedicated to devices that remove energy in a controlled manner, especially in the field of soft robotics. Such devices have the potential to significantly modulate the dynamics of a s
