Neural Models and Algorithms for Sensorimotor Control of an Octopus Arm
Tixian Wang, Udit Halder, Ekaterina Gribkova +3
In this article, a biophysically realistic model of a soft octopus arm with internal musculature is presented. The modeling is motivated by experimental observations of sensorimoto…
Passive elasticity properties of arm
Udit Halder, Ekaterina Gribkova, Rhanor Gillette +1
In this report, passive elasticity properties of arm tissue are investigated using a multidisciplinary approach encompassing biomechanical experiments,…
Topology, dynamics, and control of an octopus-analog muscular hydrostat
Arman Tekinalp, Noel Naughton, Seung-Hyun Kim +5
Muscular hydrostats, such as octopus arms or elephant trunks, lack bones entirely, endowing them with exceptional dexterity and reconfigurability. Key to their unmatched ability to…
Hierarchical control and learning of a foraging CyberOctopus
Chia-Hsien Shih, Noel Naughton, Udit Halder +5
Inspired by the unique neurophysiology of the octopus, we propose a hierarchical framework that simplifies the coordination of multiple soft arms by decomposing control into high-l…
Modeling the Neuromuscular Control System of an Octopus Arm
Tixian Wang, Udit Halder, Ekaterina Gribkova +2
The octopus arm is a neuromechanical system that involves a complex interplay between peripheral nervous system (PNS) and arm musculature. This makes the arm capable of carrying ou…
A Sensory Feedback Control Law for Octopus Arm Movements
Tixian Wang, Udit Halder, Ekaterina Gribkova +3
The main contribution of this paper is a novel sensory feedback control law for an octopus arm. The control law is inspired by, and helps integrate, several observations made by bi…
Energy Shaping Control of a CyberOctopus Soft Arm
Heng-Sheng Chang, Udit Halder, Chia-Hsien Shih +7
This paper entails application of the energy shaping methodology to control a flexible, elastic Cosserat rod model. Recent interest in such continuum models stems from applications…
