BOLT, a Robotic Leg Inspired by Biology
THE CHALLENGE
Legged robots have demonstrated superior mobility when traversing difficult and uneven terrain compared to both wheeled and tracked vehicles. This advantage makes legged robots the preferred choice for search and rescue systems in the aftermath of disasters. Few robots have been successfully developed and used in the field due to the...

Robotic Tail Used to Improve Performance and Stability of Mobile Robots
THE CHALLENGE
Natural and man-made disasters are becoming more and more commonplace. As these disasters increase in number, so does the need for, and risk to, first responders who search through rubble and rescue survivors. In response to these increased risks, legged mobile robots have emerged as a first response option as they can maneuver over uneven...

Worm-like extensible and flexible robotic manipulation
THE CHALLENGE
Current generation of continuum manipulators are used across multiple industries; medical, security, and manufacturing, but face limits due to limited degrees of freedom. Medical robotics are unable to reach some targeted locations because the manipulator is either too small or non-extensible.
This also means current generation of continuum...

An Assistive Robotic Exoskeleton Glove Designed for Patients with
Brachial Plexus Injuries
THE CHALLENGE
Exoskeleton gloves have proven to be invaluable in post-surgery therapy for patients with Brachial Plexus Injuries, countering hand muscle atrophy through controlled and assisted movements. While many rehab gloves target stroke recovery, they lack the desired Human-Machine Interface and struggle to find the right balance between performance...
