OpenPneu: Compact platform for pneumatic actuation with multi-channels
Yingjun Tian, Renbo Su, Xilong Wang +3
This paper presents a compact system, OpenPneu, to support the pneumatic actuation for multi-chambers on soft robots. Micro-pumps are employed in the system to generate airflow and…
Optimizing out-of-plane stiffness for soft grippers
Renbo Su, Yingjun Tian, Mingwei Du +1
In this paper, we presented a data-driven framework to optimize the out-of-plane stiffness for soft grippers to achieve mechanical properties as hard-to-twist and easy-to-bend. The…
Soft Robotic Mannequin: Design and Algorithm for Deformation Control
Yingjun Tian, Guoxin Fang, Justas Petrulis +2
This paper presents a novel soft robotic system for a deformable mannequin that can be employed to physically realize the 3D geometry of different human bodies. The soft membrane o…
Collision-Aware Fast Simulation for Soft Robots by Optimization-Based Geometric Computing
Guoxin Fang, Yingjun Tian, Andrew Weightman +1
Soft robots can safely interact with environments because of their mechanical compliance. Self-collision is also employed in the modern design of soft robots to enhance their perfo…
