Soft robotic hand with finger-bending/friction-reduction switching mechanism through 1-degree-of-freedom flow control
Toshihiro Nishimura, Kensuke Shimizu, Seita Nojiri +4
This paper proposes a novel pneumatic soft robotic hand that incorporates a mechanism that can switch the airflow path using a single airflow control. The developed hand can contro…
Sound masking degrades perception of self-location during stepping: A case for sound-transparent spacesuits for Mars
Jose Berengueres, Maryam Al Kuwaiti, Ahmed Yasir +1
Most efforts to improve spacesuits have been directed towards adding haptic feedback. However, sound transparency can also improve situational awareness at a relatively low cost. T…
Inflated Bendable Eversion Cantilever Mechanism with Inner Skeleton for Increased Payload Holding
Tomoya Takahashi, Masahiro Watanabe, Kenjiro Tadakuma +3
Inflatable structures used in soft robotics applications exhibit unique characteristics. In particular, the tip-extension structure, which grows from the tip, can grow without fric…
