Simulation Environment For Object Manipulation With Soft Robots In Shared Autonomy, Devin Hunter, Fabio Stroppa, Allison Okamura

Showcase of Osprey Advancements in Research and Scholarship (SOARS)

The robots of today have grown to be of much more significant use than their predecessors. Robots are now being used in industries outside of the factory setting which can be seen primarily in the medical, transportation, and social fields. With robots taking on all of these new roles within our society, the establishment of robust human-robot collaboration is crucial in order for robots to be able to successfully complete desired tasks without becoming a hinderance to nearby humans. We explored this concept by implementing a shared-autonomy algorithm named MBSA (Motion Based Smart Assistance) to a soft robot simulation and …
