Bioinspired locomotion and grasping in water: the soft eight-arm OCTOPUS robot.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics May 13, 2015
The octopus is an interesting model for the development of soft robotics, due to its high deformability, dexterity and rich behavioural repertoire. To investigate the principles of octopus dexterity, we designed an eight-arm soft robot and evaluated ...

Modal kinematics for multisection continuum arms.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics May 13, 2015
This paper presents a novel spatial kinematic model for multisection continuum arms based on mode shape functions (MSF). Modal methods have been used in many disciplines from finite element methods to structural analysis to approximate complex and no...

Ultra-fast escape maneuver of an octopus-inspired robot.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics Feb 2, 2015
We design and test an octopus-inspired flexible hull robot that demonstrates outstanding fast-starting performance. The robot is hyper-inflated with water, and then rapidly deflates to expel the fluid so as to power the escape maneuver. Using this ro...

Somatosensory actuator based on stretchable conductive photothermally responsive hydrogel.

Science robotics Apr 7, 2021
Mimicking biological neuromuscular systems' sensory motion requires the unification of sensing and actuation in a singular artificial muscle material, which must not only actuate but also sense their own motions. These functionalities would be of gre...

Anchoring like octopus: biologically inspired soft artificial sucker.

Journal of the Royal Society, Interface Oct 1, 2017
This paper presents a robotic anchoring module, a sensorized mechanism for attachment to the environment that can be integrated into robots to enable or enhance various functions such as robot mobility, remaining on location or its ability to manipul...
