Course Description
This laboratory explores the principles of soft robotics, emphasizing their application as innovative solutions to robotic challenges that demand flexibility, adaptability, and/or safe interaction with complex environments.
Students will dig in the design and functionality of soft pneumatic robots together with the understanding on motion tracking systems and its implementation process to gather motion information from objects.
In the experimental session, students will focus on using motion tracking technologies (OptiTrack). They will gain hands-on experience on the setup, calibration, data evaluation, and visualization processes when using these systems.
By the end of the course, students will be adept at using motion tracking to assess the performance of soft robotic systems.
