A Laser-Based Direct Cable Length Measurement Sensor for CDPRs

open access: yesRobotics, 2021
Accuracy improvement is an important research topic in the field of cable-driven parallel robots (CDPRs). One reason for inaccuracies of CDPRs are deviations in the cable lengths.

Digital Actuation Control of Soft Robotic Origami With Self‐Folding Liquid Crystal Elastomer Hinges

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Self‐folding soft‐rigid hybrid robotic origami is enabled by liquid crystal elastomer actuators with embedded Joule heating and closed‐loop digital control. Digitally addressable hinges provide reversible and programmable transitions between distinct folded states while maintaining actuation performance at high cycle counts (over 1500).

Dynamic Launch Trajectory Planning of a Cable-Suspended Translational Parallel Robot Using Point-to-Point Motions

open access: yesMachines, 2023
In the last decade, cable-suspended parallel robots have attracted significant interest due to their large workspaces and high dynamic performances. However, a significant drawback is that cables must always be in tension to control the motion.

Counterion Dependent Side‐Chain Relaxation Stiffens a Chemically Doped Thienothiophene Copolymer

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Oxidation of a thienothiophene copolymer, p(g3TT‐T2), via different doping strategies and dopant molecules resulted in materials with similar oxidation levels and a high electrical conductivity of ≈100 S cm−1. However, mechanical properties varied significantly, with sub‐glass transition temperatures and elastic moduli spanning from –44°C to –3°C and ...
