A Versatile Neural Network Configuration Space Planning and Control Strategy for Modular Soft Robot Arms
Zixi Chen, Qinghua Guan, Josie Hughes +2
Modular soft robot arms (MSRAs) are composed of multiple modules connected in a sequence, and they can bend at different angles in various directions. This capability allows MSRAs…
A Hybrid Adaptive Controller for Soft Robot Interchangeability
Zixi Chen, Xuyang Ren, Matteo Bernabei +3
Soft robots have been leveraged in considerable areas like surgery, rehabilitation, and bionics due to their softness, flexibility, and safety. However, it is challenging to produc…
Data-driven Methods Applied to Soft Robot Modeling and Control: A Review
Zixi Chen, Federico Renda, Alexia Le Gall +6
Soft robots show compliance and have infinite degrees of freedom. Thanks to these properties, such robots can be leveraged for surgery, rehabilitation, biomimetics, unstructured en…
Heterogeneity for Increasing Performance and Reliability of Self-Reconfigurable Multi-Robot Organisms
S. Kernbach, F. Schlachter, R. Humza +12
Homogeneity and heterogeneity represent a well-known trade-off in the design of modular robot systems. This work addresses the heterogeneity concept, its rationales, design choices…
