A Low Profile Electromagnetic Actuator Design and Model for an Origami Parallel Platform
Jamie Paik, Amir Firouzeh, Marco Salerno
Thin foldable origami mechanisms allow reconfiguration of complex structures with large volumetric change, versatility, and at low cost; however, there is rarely a systematic way to make them autonomously actuated due to the lack of low profile actuators. ...
2017Soft actuation and sensing towards robot-assisted facial rehabilitation
Continuing research efforts in robot-assisted rehabilitation demand more adaptable and inherently soft wearable devices. A wearable rehabilitative device is required to follow the motion of the body and to provide assistive or corrective motions to restore ...
2017Grasp mode and compliance control of an under-actuated origami gripper using adjustable stiffness joints
Every robotic gripper requires an equilibrated solution towards the grasp adaptability, precision, and load bearing capacity. A versatile soft robotic gripper requires adjustable grasp mode, for objects with different sizes and shapes, and adjustable compl ...
2017Robogami: A Fully Integrated Low-Profile Robotic Origami
Intelligent robotic systems that can react to unprogrammed tasks and unforeseen environmental changes require augmented "softness." Robogami, a low-profile origami robot, addresses intrinsic (material-wise) and extrinsic (mechanism-wise) softness with its ...
2015The Design and Modeling of a Novel Resistive Stretch Sensor With Tunable Sensitivity
Wearable technologies, interactive and safe robotic systems require an effective actuator control that highly depends on the accurate feedback from flexible and dense array of sensors. In this paper, we introduce a novel soft stretch sensor design that is ...
2015Soft Pneumatic Actuator with Adjustable Stiffness Layers for Multi-DoF Actuation
Jamie Paik, Amir Firouzeh, Marco Salerno
The soft pneumatic actuators (SPAs) are a solution toward the highly customizable and light actuators with the versatility of actuation modes, and an inherent compliance. Such flexibility allows SPAs to be considered as alternative actuators for wearable r ...
2015Soft piezoresistive sensor model and characterization with varying design parameters
Jamie Paik, Amir Firouzeh, Antoine Foba Amon Junior
Recent robots target safety, reconfigurability and interactivity by addressing the “softness” of the hardware either by endowing additional degrees-of-freedom or through inherent compliancy. These robots require distributed sensing with flexibility and sof ...
2015Facial rehabilitative device based on robogami (robotic origami) platform
The present invention relates to a facial rehabilitative device based on Robogami (Robotic Origami) platform. The device facilitates the process of the physical therapy for the therapist, to make this process more disciplined, and to enhance the result for ...
2015Sensor and actuator integrated low-profile robotic Origami
Jamie Paik, Amir Firouzeh, Yi Sun
The robotic origami (Robogami) is a low-profile, sheet-like robot with multi degrees-of-freedom (DoF) that embeds different functional layers. Due to its planar form, it can take advantage of precise 2D fabrication methods usually reserved for micro and na ...
