We are at @ieeeiros! My student Weijia Tao will present WHOPPEr Drone, which uses its compliant body to perch and transport objects (TuAT4, 140D). I will present our work with @spring_berman's team on configuration tracking control of soft robotic arm (MoAT6, 140FG)! #IROS2023

Excited to announce my student Emiliano Quiñones Yumbla has successfully defended his PhD dissertation on sensing, control, and testing of wearable soft robot! He will join @UPRCA_Informa as a tenure-track faculty member. Congrats and good luck to your new chapter as a professor!

An inflatable drone can perch on a wide variety of objects by colliding with them – taking advantage of its soft-body physics to increase its contact time with the landing zone without bouncing off Learn more: newscientist.com/article/237010…

We custom designed a wearable sensing system to measure lower-limb kinematics of patients and assistive force applied by therapists. This data is used to directly learn a virtual impedance model that captures therapist's assistive strategies and predicts their assistive torque.

Check out our paper “Learning Post-Stroke Gait Training Strategies by Modeling Patient-Therapist Interaction" published in IEEE T-NSRE! We aimed to achieve effective robot-aided gait training by incorporating the expertise of therapists in stroke rehab. doi.org/10.1109/TNSRE.…

This work highlights the needs to co-design planner and controller for morphing robots. We validate the proposed algorithms by simulating a foldable quadrotor’s flight through a passageway. Paper: ieeexplore.ieee.org/abstract/docum…. We will also present this work @ACC_Control. Check it out!

New paper alert! Led by @patnaiKarishma, our work on adaptive attitude control for foldable quadrotors is published @CSSIEEE L-CSS! We employed switched systems theory to find switching conditions between different configurations and integrate them into a trajectory planner.
