A Model-Based Decoupling Strategy for Proprioception and Contact Sensing in an Architected Soft Manipulator
Francesco Stella, Annan Zhang, Cosimo Della Santina +2
Soft continuum robots require embedded sensing for proprioception and contact detection, yet integrating sensors into sparse, highly deformable architected structures remains chall…
Printed helicoids with embedded air channels make sensorized segments for soft continuum robots
Annan Zhang, Hanna Matusik, Miguel Flores-Acton +3
Soft robots enable safe, adaptive interaction with complex environments but remain difficult to sense and control due to their highly deformable structures. Architected soft materi…
Fluidically Innervated Lattices Make Versatile and Durable Tactile Sensors
Annan Zhang, Miguel Flores-Acton, Andy Yu +3
Tactile sensing plays a fundamental role in enabling robots to navigate dynamic and unstructured environments, particularly in applications such as delicate object manipulation, su…
Controlling diverse robots by inferring Jacobian fields with deep networks
Sizhe Lester Li, Annan Zhang, Boyuan Chen +4
Mirroring the complex structures and diverse functions of natural organisms is a long-standing challenge in robotics. Modern fabrication techniques have greatly expanded the feasib…
Certified Polyhedral Decompositions of Collision-Free Configuration Space
Hongkai Dai, Alexandre Amice, Peter Werner +2
Understanding the geometry of collision-free configuration space (C-free) in the presence of task-space obstacles is an essential ingredient for collision-free motion planning. Whi…
Finding and Optimizing Certified, Collision-Free Regions in Configuration Space for Robot Manipulators
Alexandre Amice, Hongkai Dai, Peter Werner +2
Configuration space (C-space) has played a central role in collision-free motion planning, particularly for robot manipulators. While it is possible to check for collisions at a po…
