Force-Safe Environment Maps and Real-Time Detection for Soft Robot Manipulators
Akua K. Dickson, Juan C. Pacheco Garcia, Andrew P. Sabelhaus
Soft robot manipulators have the potential for deployment in delicate environments to perform complex manipulation tasks. However, existing obstacle detection and avoidance methods…
Safe Autonomous Environmental Contact for Soft Robots using Control Barrier Functions
Akua K. Dickson, Juan C. Pacheco Garcia, Meredith L. Anderson +6
Robots built from soft materials will inherently apply lower environmental forces than their rigid counterparts, and therefore may be more suitable in sensitive settings with unint…
Self-Sensing for Proprioception and Contact Detection in Soft Robots Using Shape Memory Alloy Artificial Muscles
Ran Jing, Meredith L. Anderson, Juan C. Pacheco Garcia +1
Estimating a soft robot's pose and applied forces, also called proprioception, is crucial for safe interaction of the robot with its environment. However, most solutions for soft r…
