Influence Vectors Control for Robots Using Cellular-like Binary Actuators
Alexandre Girard, Jean-Sébastien Plante
Robots using cellular-like redundant binary actuators could outmatch electric-gearmotor robotic systems in terms of reliability, force-to-weight ratio and cost. This paper presents…
Soft Two-degree-of-freedom Dielectric Elastomer Position Sensor Exhibiting Linear Behavior
Alexandre Girard, Jean-Philippe Lucking Bigué, Benjamin M. O'Brien +3
Soft robots could bring robotic systems to new horizons, by enabling safe human-machine interaction. For precise control, these soft structures require high level position feedback…
A Bimodal Hydrostatic Actuator for Robotic Legs with Compliant Fast Motion and High Lifting Force
Alex Lecavalier, Jeff Denis, Jean-Sébastien Plante +1
Robotic legs have bimodal operations: swing phases when the leg needs to move quickly in the air (high-speed, low-force) and stance phases when the leg bears the weight of the syst…
