Abstract: Soft robotic systems are inherently compliant, giving them unique capabilities not possessed by traditional rigid-bodied robot systems. Many soft systems rely on soft pneumatic actuators.

Later, I helped a friend disassemble a Tesla model, and the mass of circuit boards inside was overwhelming—until I drew 5 ...

Abstract: Magnetic resonance (MR) conditional actuators and encoders are the key components for MR-guided robotic systems. In this article, we present the modeling and control of our MR-safe pneumatic ...
