Journal ArticleDOI

Self-folding origami: shape memory composites activated by uniform heating

TL;DR: In this paper, shape memory composites are used for self-folding and self-sealing in an oven, and the resulting structures are found to be able to bear up to twice the load of unsealed structures.
Journal ArticleDOI

Design and testing of a selectively compliant underactuated hand

TL;DR: A compliant underactuated hand, capable of locking individual joints, has been developed that can adopt configurations and grasp sequences that would otherwise require a fully actuated solution.
Journal ArticleDOI

Highly stretchable self-sensing actuator based on conductive photothermally-responsive hydrogel

TL;DR: In this article, a double-network of a nanostructured thermo-responsive hydrogel poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) and a light-absorbing, electrically conductive polymer polypyrrole (PPy) was proposed to enable remotely-triggered actuation and local strain-sensing.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

The flying monkey: A mesoscale robot that can run, fly, and grasp

TL;DR: The flying monkey is presented, a novel robot platform having three main capabilities: walking, grasping, and flight that has increased mission life and capabilities through the combination of the functionalities of legged and aerial robots.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Selectively compliant underactuated hand for mobile manipulation

TL;DR: This paper presents the design of one such hand that combines series-elastic actuation and electrostatic braking at the joints, and a numerical analysis shows how the maximum pullout force varies as a function of kinematic parameters, spring forces at the joint and brake torques.
