Happy to present our system to a wide range of public including interviews, researchers, students and families. If you want to visit us, you still have time. The exhibition is open until 6pm. #BSF24 #haptics #HealthcareInnovation #Robotics #Healthcare

It was a pleasure presenting our #haptic feedback system with Helge Wurdemann and Wenlong Gaozhang. Thanks for the invitation, Kay Burley and Sky News. This work, published with Springer Nature in Nature Communications, is available at doi.org/10.1038/s41467….

Please help us congratulate Professor of Healthcare Engineering Rebecca Shipley (OBE FREng FIET) on becoming a Fellow of the Royal Academy of Engineering! That's quite the collection of letters Becky! Hurrah! UCL News @uclengineering raeng.org.uk/about-us/fello…

It was an absolute pleasure to host the IEEE RAS Keynote Session on Biorobotics, introducing some of the pioneers and thought leaders in the field: Auke Ijspeert Auke Ijspeert Barbara Mazzolai Kaspar Althoefer & Justin Werfel - Watch the session here: youtube.com/watch?v=XF_Wv-…

It was indeed great to be part of this fantastic keynote session at IROS2024 with Helge Wurdemann, Barbara Mazzolai, Kaspar Althoefer and Justin Werfel. Please watch!

Prof. Robert Katzschmann ETH Zürich will visit @UCL UCLmecheng UCL Soft Haptics and Robotics on 26 Nov 2024 @ 4pm - we are excited about his IET Robotics/UCL Robotics talk on "Can robots based on musculoskeletal designs better interact with the world?" Book your ticket on eventbrite.co.uk/e/can-robots-b…

Dr Shi Ge, who completed his PhD at UCL MechEng UCL UCL Robotics UCL Soft Haptics and Robotics & is now with CSIRO's Data61, published latest findings on a novel multi-cavity haptic feedback system in IEEE Transactions on Haptics #ToH. helge-wurdemann.com/wp-content/upl… IEEE World Haptics Conference Soft Robotics UK

This research builds upon prior work on fluidic haptic interfaces for mechano-tactile feedback, previously published in #ToH (helge-wurdemann.com/wp-content/upl…), and modelled using finite deformation theory, published in Royal Society of Chemistry's @SoftMatter journal.

With Dr Shi Jialei, graduated from UCL UCL MechEng UCL Robotics UCL Soft Haptics and Robotics in 2024, now The Hamlyn Centre Imperial College London, they developed a soft robotic handheld laparoscopic device, driven by this touch interface, published in IEEE #TMRB: helge-wurdemann.com/wp-content/upl…

This research has been supported by UCL Grand Challenges, the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (grant number: EP/V01062X/1), and @UCL-IIT Delhi Seed Funding 2020-21. Many thanks for this incredible support!

New soft robotics for medical applications! 🚀 Recent research presents a pneumatically driven laparoscopy device with a multi-cavity touch interface for intuitive control in minimally invasive surgery. Promising results pave the way for future innovations!
