Spring-Brake! Handed Shearing Auxetics Improve Efficiency of Hopping and Standing
Joseph Sullivan, Ian Good, Samuel A. Burden +1
Energy efficiency is critical to the success of legged robotics. Efficiency is lost through wasted energy during locomotion and standing. Including elastic elements has been shown…
Torque Responsive Metamaterials Enable High Payload Soft Robot Arms
Ian Good, Srivatsan Balaji, David Oh +2
Soft robots have struggled to support large forces and moments while also supporting their own weight against gravity. This limits their ability to reach certain configurations nec…
Torsion Resistant Strain Limiting Layers Enable High Grip Strength of Electrically-Driven Handed Shearing Auxetic Grippers
Ian Good, Srivatsan Balaji, Jeffrey I. Lipton
Soft grippers have demonstrated a strong ability to successfully pick and manipulate many objects. A key limitation to their wider adoption is their inability to grasp larger paylo…
Enhancing the Performance of Pneu-net Actuators Using a Torsion Resistant Strain Limiting Layer
Ian Sullivan Good, Srivatsan Balaji, Jeffrey Ian Lipton
Pneunets are the primary form of soft robotic grippers. A key limitation to their wider adoption is their inability to grasp larger payloads due to objects slipping out of grasps.…
Computational Design of Passive Grippers
Milin Kodnongbua, Ian Good Yu Lou, Jeffrey Lipton +1
This work proposes a novel generative design tool for passive grippers -- robot end effectors that have no additional actuation and instead leverage the existing degrees of freedom…
Kinematic Modeling of Handed Shearing Auxetics via Piecewise Constant Curvature
Aman Garg, Ian Good, Daniel Revier +2
Handed Shearing Auxetics (HSA) are a promising technique for making motor-driven, soft, continuum robots. Many potential applications from inspection tasks to solar tracking requir…
Expanding the Design Space for Electrically-Driven Soft Robots through Handed Shearing Auxetics
Ian Good, Tosh Brown-Moore, Aditya Patil +2
Handed Shearing Auxetics (HSA) are a promising structure for making electrically driven robots with distributed compliance that convert a motors rotation and torque into extension…
