Geometry-based customization of bending modalities for 3D-printed soft pneumatic actuators [PDF]
, 2018 In this work, we propose a novel type of 3D-printed soft pneumatic actuator that allows geometry-based customization of bending modalities. While motion in the 3D-space has been achieved for several types of soft actuators, only 2D-bending has been ...

A Non-Invasive, Soft Robotic Wearable Glove to Attenuate Hand Tremors
Journal of Student Research, 2022 Hand tremors are a widespread medical condition that decreases a patient’s quality of life. Due to uncontrollable hand shaking, patients have difficulty completing essential daily tasks. Many also experience embarrassment and anxiety in social settings, which negatively affects many areas of their lives.
