Pellet-based 3D Printing of Soft Thermoplastic Elastomeric Membranes for Soft Robotic Applications
Nick Willemstein, Mohammad Ebrahim Imanian, Herman van der Kooij +1
Additive Manufacturing (AM) is a promising solution for handling the complexity of fabricating soft robots. However, the AM of hyperelastic materials is still challenging with a li…
Soft insoles for estimating 3D ground reaction forces using 3D printed foam-like sensors
Nick Willemstein, Saivimal Sridar, Herman van der Kooij +1
Sensorized insoles provide a tool for gait studies and health monitoring during daily life. For users to accept such insoles they need to be comfortable and lightweight. Previous w…
3D Printed Proprioceptive Soft Fluidic Actuators with Graded Porosity
Nick Willemstein, Herman van der Kooij, Ali Sadeghi
Integration of both actuation and proprioception into the robot body would provide actuation and sensing in a single integrated system. Within this work, a manufacturing approach f…
Direct 3D Printing of Soft Fluidic Actuators with Graded Porosity
Nick Willemstein, Herman van der Kooij, Ali Sadeghi
New additive manufacturing methods are needed to realize more complex soft robots. One example is soft fluidic robotics, which exploits fluidic power and stiffness gradients. Porou…
