Robotics

We present results from human studies with the benchmarking experiments, providing a baseline for comparison with robot hands as well as presenting new insights into human handshaking.

In this paper, we examine the sensing and actuation necessary for a mechanism to alter its fall under a high rate of spin.

We develop a reconfigurable legged robot, named Snapbot, to emulate configuration changes and various styles of legged locomotion.

We present a novel computational approach to optimizing the morphological design of robots.

We introduce a miniaturized active stabilization mechanism that attenuates such disturbances and keeps the camera steady.

In this paper, we use KUKA’s Fast Robot Interface (FRI) to design and implement a tracking controller on the Lightweight Robot (LBR) IIWA.
