Environment-Centric Learning Approach for Gait Synthesis in Terrestrial Soft Robots
Caitlin Freeman, Arun Niddish Mahendran, Vishesh Vikas
Locomotion gaits are fundamental for control of soft terrestrial robots. However, synthesis of these gaits is challenging due to modeling of robot-environment interaction and lack…
Multi-gait Locomotion Planning and Tracking for Tendon-actuated Terrestrial Soft Robot (TerreSoRo)
Arun Niddish Mahendran, Caitlin Freeman, Alexander H. Chang +3
The adaptability of soft robots makes them ideal candidates to maneuver through unstructured environments. However, locomotion challenges arise due to complexities in modeling the…
Topology and morphology design of spherically reconfigurable homogeneous Modular Soft Robots (MSoRos)
Caitlin Freeman, Michael Maynard, Vishesh Vikas
Imagine a swarm of terrestrial robots that can explore an environment, and, upon completion of this task, reconfigure into a spherical ball and roll out. This dimensional change al…
