Article
Full-text available
Soft fiber-reinforced actuators have demonstrated significant potential across various robotics applications. However, the actuation motion in these actuators is typically limited to a single type of motion behavior, such as bending, extending, and twisting. Additionally, a combination of bending with twisting and extending with twisting can occur...

The rising popularity of soft grippers in industry is due to their impressive adaptability. Yet, this adaptability requires flexibility, which often sacrifices grip firmness and complicates sensor integration. This article introduces two additional innovations, variable stiffness and pneumatic sensing, into a FinRay adaptive gripper. The approach a...

Full-text available
The recent introduction of self-healing soft materials in robotics is a major step towards sustainable next generation robots. By manufacturing soft robots out of these smart materials, we integrate a self-healing ability and increase the physical intelligence of these systems. However, the embodied intelligence in the material level needs to be au...

The variability in the shapes and sizes of objects presents a significant challenge for two-finger robotic grippers when it comes to manipulating them. Based on the chemistry of vitrimers (a new class of polymer materials that have dynamic covalent bonds, which allow them to reversibly change their mechanical properties under specific conditions),...
Article
Full-text available
Self-healing soft robots show enormous potential to recover functional performance after healing the damages. However, healing in these systems is limited by the recontact of the fracture surfaces. This paper presents for the first time a shape memory alloy (SMA) wire-reinforced soft bending actuator made out of a castor oil-based self-healing poly...
Conference Paper
Full-text available
Recent advances in soft robotics in academia have led to the adoption of soft grippers in industrial settings. Due to their soft bending actuators, these grippers can handle delicate objects with great care. However, due to their flexibility, the actuators are prone to out-of-plane deformations upon asymmetric loading. These undesired deformations...

Self-healing polymers can address the damage susceptibility in soft robotics. However, in most cases, their healing requires a heat stimulus, provided by an external device. This paper presents a self-healing soft actuator with an integrated healable flexible heater, functioning as the stimuli-providing system. The actuator is constructed out of th...
Article
Recent advances in soft continuum robots revealed the need for accurate models, required to develop advanced control strategies. In this paper a general methodology is presented that allows to create an accurate inverse kinematic control based on hyperelastic models, fitted on mechanical material properties. This methodology is based on finite elem...
