Harvard Folding Polyhedron Robotic Arm Sampler For Non-Destructive Capture

Folding polyhedron sampler enables easy capture and release of delicate underwater organisms. The origami mechanism design could be scaled to just about any size, allowing it to be tailored for capture of larger or smaller objects. (CAMBRIDGE, Mass.) — The open ocean is the largest and least explored environment on Earth, estimated to hold up

Personalizing Wearable Devices

When it comes to soft, assistive devices — like the exosuit being designed by the Harvard Biodesign Lab — the wearer and the robot need to be in sync. But every human moves a bit differently and tailoring the robot’s parameters for an individual user is a time-consuming and inefficient process. Now, researchers from the
