The perception of an object's surface is important for robotic applications enabling robust object manipulation. The level of accuracy in such a representation affects the outcome of the action planning, especially during tasks that require physical contact, e.g. grasping. In this paper, we propose
In this paper we introduce a novel technique that aims to control a two-module bio-inspired soft-robotic arm in order to qualitatively reproduce human demonstrations. The main idea behind the proposed methodology is based on the assumption that a complex trajectory can be derived from the compositio…
In this paper we introduce a novel technique that aims to dynamically control a two-module bio-inspired soft-robotic arm in order to qualitatively reproduce a path defined by sparse way-points. The main idea behind this work is based on the assumption that a complex trajectory may be derived as a co…
In this paper we introduce a novel technique that aims to dynamically control a modular bio-inspired soft-robotic arm in order to perform cyclic rhythmic patterns. Oscillatory signals are produced at the actuator's level by a central pattern generator (CPG), resulting in the generation of a periodic…
