RA-L 2022

We present a finger-mounted 4-degree-of-freedom (DoF) haptic device created using origami fabrication techniques. The 4-DoF device uses a parallel kinematic mechanism and is capable of delivering normal, shear, and torsional haptic feedback to the fingertip. Traditional methods of robot fabrication

RA-L 2019

Haptic devices use touch to enable communication in a salient and private manner. While most haptic devices are held or worn at the hand, there is recent interest in developing wearable haptic devices for the arms. This frees the hands for manipulation tasks, but creates challenges for wearability.
