Variable stiffness actuators for human-robot interaction

    Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingMeeting abstract (Book)

    Abstract

    The main research topics of the Robotics & Multibody Mechanics (R&MM) research group can be divided into physical human-robot interaction (pHRI) and cognitive HRI (cHRI). Core technology is the design and control of variable stiffness actuators for embodied intelligence principles as safety, energy efficiency and adaptability. The presentation will provide an overview of the different developed systems.
