The implications of embodiment for behavior and cognition: animal and robotic case studies

, 2011
In this paper, we will argue that if we want to understand the function of the brain (or the control in the case of robots), we must understand how the brain is embedded into the physical system, and how the organism interacts with the real world.

Design of a Liquid Jamming Gripper

Designs, 2023
We present the design of a universal gripper based on the principle of liquid jamming. The phase change behavior of a mineral oil subjected to cooling is used for adaptive gripping and release of objects.
