Contact Detection and Manipulation with a Shape-Memory Alloy Based Soft Gripper

ICRA 2026poster

Soft robotics offers the opportunity to create dexterous machines that can safely handle delicate objects. Grippers made from deformable actuators and compliant materials can deform around the objects with which they come in contact. The continuum mechanics of flexible manipulators can be leveraged …

Model-Free Safety Filter for Soft Robots: A Q-Learning Approach

ICRA 2025

Ensuring safety via safety filters in real-world robotics presents significant challenges, particularly when the system dynamics is complex or unavailable. To handle this issue, learning-based safety filters recently gained popularity, which can be classified as model-based and model-free methods. E
