ROBOTIC COMPOSITES AND COMPOSITIONS
Our lab works at the intersection of mechanics, robotics, materials, and design, benefiting from and contributing to sub-fields such as soft and underactuated robots, architected materials, modular robotics, granular matter, swarm robotics, and circular engineering.
We develop active composite materials with robotic capabilities for minimally-invasive medicine, sustainable manufacturing, and human-material interaction.
