Foam-Embedded Soft Robotic Joint With Inverse Kinematic Modeling by Iterative Self-Improving Learning

RA-L 2024

Soft robotic arms have gained significant attention owing to their flexibility and adaptability. Nonetheless, the instability due to their high-elasticity structure further leads to the difficulty of precise kinematic modeling and control. This letter introduces a novel solution employing foam-embed

Multi-Dimensional Proprioception and Stiffness Tuning for Soft Robotic Joints

ICRA 2022poster

Proprioception and variable stiffness are two trending topics in soft robotics research. The former could endow soft robots with the ability to perceive the environment as well as their internal states without the need of dedicated sensors, while the latter could strengthen the otherwise excessive c…

A High-Payload Proprioceptive Hybrid Robotic Gripper With Soft Origamic Actuators

RA-L 2020

Proprioception is the ability to perceive environmental stimulations through internal sensory organs. Enabling proprioception is critical for robots to be aware of the environmental interactions and respond appropriately, particularly for high-payload grippers to ensure safety when handling delicate
