Incorporating High-Resolution Tactile Perception for Performative and Generalized Robotic Manipulation Through Compliance Estimation and Hardware Design
… and materials. Second, we create a 1-DoF robotic gripper design with integrated tactile sensing. Inspired by the principle of self-similarity, this gripper is designed to better conform to complex object geometries than traditional designs and more securely grasp objects of many shapes and sizes. …

Multi-Objective Bilevel Bayesian optimization for robot and behavior co-design
Traditionally, the robot design process is based on the trial-and-error approach that involves repeated cycles of design, prototyping, and evaluation. During the process, the robot designer should tackle multiple objectives, which are commonly in conflicting relationships. Furthermore, the robot …

Design and Manufacturing of a Lead Screw Robotic Gripper
Robotic grippers have many amazing uses. From helping to rescue trapped animals underwater to holding surgical tools in precise locations during an operation, robotic grippers have proved to be useful for many functions that are tedious, dangerous and difficult for the human hand to perform. The …

Bistable prestressed spring steel grippers for aerial perching and grasping
… compliant mechanisms is limited to heavy, rigid grippers with limited applications in a wide variety of environments and grippers with complicated pneumatic controls. In this thesis, we propose a novel solution to this gap in research through the use of prestressed spring steel bands (PSSB) to …

Exploiting the Intrinsic Embodied Dynamics for Adaptive Robotic Behaviors
… embodied dynamics can be utilized for the design of adaptive robotic systems with behavioral diversity. On the one hand, to occupy a specific ecological niche the robot is required to be designed with specific characteristics that maintain its situatedness in the environment. Under this …
