The strategy opens new possibilities for the design of compact physical interfaces in human-robot interaction. Link: doi.org/10.1002/aisy.2… Authors: @a_mustafamete , Alexander Schüßler, Yves Martin, Bruno Trivelli, @robotician @EPFL_en @snsf_ch

We introduce a data-driven kinematic modeling and control strategy for origami robots with inherent compliance. We apply this strategy to a multiloop origami spherical joint for intuitive drone control with force feedback.

We are happy to share that our research on “Data-Driven Kinematic Modeling of Physical Origami Robots” has been published in Advanced Intelligent Systems @Advintellsyst. youtu.be/EJIRy6ykwmQ?si… #OrigamiRobots #DataDrivenModeling #Haptics
