Geometric Shortcuts for Complex Trunk Postures: Dual-Helicity Coupling Enables Low-Dimensional Control
Huishi Huang, Danlu Chen, Matteo Lo Preti +3
How do elephant trunks generate complex postures without relying solely on fine segmental activation? We propose that part of this complexity arises from a low-dimensional geometri…
Surface-based Manipulation Using Tunable Compliant Porous-Elastic Soft Sensing
Gayatri Indukumar, Muhammad Awais, Diana Cafiso +2
There is a growing need for soft robotic platforms that perform gentle, precise handling of a wide variety of objects. Existing surface-based manipulation systems, however, lack th…
An Event-Based Opto-Tactile Skin
Mohammadreza Koolani, Simeon Bamford, Petr Trunin +5
This paper presents a neuromorphic, event-driven tactile sensing system for soft, large-area skin, based on the Dynamic Vision Sensors (DVS) integrated with a flexible silicone opt…
Magnetic Tactile-Driven Soft Actuator for Intelligent Grasping and Firmness Evaluation
Chengjin Du, Federico Bernabei, Zhengyin Du +3
Soft robots are powerful tools for manipulating delicate objects, yet their adoption is hindered by two gaps: the lack of integrated tactile sensing and sensor signal distortion ca…
Sensorimotor Control Strategies for Tactile Robotics
Enrico Donato, Matteo Lo Preti, Lucia Beccai +1
How are robots becoming smarter at interacting with their surroundings? Recent advances have reshaped how robots use tactile sensing to perceive and engage with the world. Tactile…
Neural Cellular Automata for Decentralized Sensing using a Soft Inductive Sensor Array for Distributed Manipulator Systems
Bailey Dacre, Nicolas Bessone, Matteo Lo Preti +4
In Distributed Manipulator Systems (DMS), decentralization is a highly desirable property as it promotes robustness and facilitates scalability by distributing computational burden…
