Fabric Soft Pneumatic Actuators hero image

Fabric-based soft pneumatic actuators designed for wearable assistive devices, with a computational modeling framework that runs roughly 10x faster than conventional silicone-based soft actuator simulations. The work has been one of the most cited contributions in fabric soft robotics and has been adopted by groups at the Toyota Research Institute and MIT.
