About

Our group is focused on the research in the soft robotics area. We are developing new applications using the smart materials like magnetorheological elastomers (MRE) and dielectric electroactive polymers (DEAP). We build new soft devices based on the silicon and polymers. We can simulate the new concept of device using FEM software. Our current goal is to apply control algorithms to manipulate the soft devices.
