Tilde: Teleoperation for Dexterous In-Hand Manipulation Learning with a DeltaHand
Zilin Si, Kevin Lee Zhang, Zeynep Temel +1
Dexterous robotic manipulation remains a challenging domain due to its strict demands for precision and robustness on both hardware and software. While dexterous robotic hands have…
DELTAHANDS: A Synergistic Dexterous Hand Framework Based on Delta Robots
Zilin Si, Kevin Zhang, Oliver Kroemer +1
Dexterous robotic manipulation in unstructured environments can aid in everyday tasks such as cleaning and caretaking. Anthropomorphic robotic hands are highly dexterous and theore…
Reconfigurable Robot Control Using Flexible Coupling Mechanisms
Sha Yi, Katia Sycara, Zeynep Temel
Reconfigurable robot swarms are capable of connecting with each other to form complex structures. Current mechanical or magnetic connection mechanisms can be complicated to manufac…
DeltaZ: An Accessible Compliant Delta Robot Manipulator for Research and Education
Sarvesh Patil, Samuel C. Alvares, Pragna Mannam +2
This paper presents the DeltaZ robot, a centimeter-scale, low-cost, delta-style robot that allows for a broad range of capabilities and robust functionalities. Current technologies…
Linear Delta Arrays for Compliant Dexterous Distributed Manipulation
Sarvesh Patil, Tony Tao, Tess Hellebrekers +2
This paper presents a new type of distributed dexterous manipulator: delta arrays. Our delta array setup consists of 64 linearly-actuated delta robots with 3D-printed compliant lin…
Configuration Control for Physical Coupling of Heterogeneous Robot Swarms
Sha Yi, Zeynep Temel, Katia Sycara
In this paper, we present a heterogeneous robot swarm system that can physically couple with each other to form functional structures and dynamically decouple to perform individual…
Characterization of a Meso-Scale Wearable Robot for Bathing Assistance
Fukang Liu, Vaidehi Patil, Zackory Erickson +1
Robotic bathing assistance has long been considered an important and practical task in healthcare. Yet, achieving flexible and efficient cleaning tasks on the human body is challen…
PuzzleBots: Physical Coupling of Robot Swarms
Sha Yi, Zeynep Temel, Katia Sycara
Robot swarms have been shown to improve the ability of individual robots by inter-robot collaboration. In this paper, we present the PuzzleBots - a low-cost robotic swarm system wh…
Changes in the flagellar bundling time account for variations in swimming behavior of flagellated bacteria in viscous media
Zijie Qu, Fatma Zeynep Temel, Rene Henderikx +1
Although the motility of the flagellated bacteria, Escherichia coli, has been widely studied, the effect of viscosity on swimming speed remains controversial. The swimming mode of…
