A Vision-based Sensing Approach for a Spherical Soft Robotic Arm
Matthias Hofer, Carmelo Sferrazza, Raffaello D'Andrea
Sensory feedback is essential for the control of soft robotic systems and to enable deployment in a variety of different tasks. Proprioception refers to sensing the robot's own sta…
Sim-to-real for high-resolution optical tactile sensing: From images to 3D contact force distributions
Carmelo Sferrazza, Raffaello D'Andrea
The images captured by vision-based tactile sensors carry information about high-resolution tactile fields, such as the distribution of the contact forces applied to their soft sen…
A Fast and Reliable Pick-and-Place Application with a Spherical Soft Robotic Arm
Jasan Zughaibi, Matthias Hofer, Raffaello D'Andrea
This paper presents the application of a learning control approach for the realization of a fast and reliable pick-and-place application with a spherical soft robotic arm. The arm…
Learning the sense of touch in simulation: a sim-to-real strategy for vision-based tactile sensing
Carmelo Sferrazza, Thomas Bi, Raffaello D'Andrea
Data-driven approaches to tactile sensing aim to overcome the complexity of accurately modeling contact with soft materials. However, their widespread adoption is impaired by conce…
