Development and Evaluation of a Learning-based Model for Real-time Haptic Texture Rendering

no code implementations27 Dec 2022 Negin Heravi, Heather Culbertson, Allison M. Okamura, Jeannette Bohg

Current Virtual Reality (VR) environments lack the rich haptic signals that humans experience during real-life interactions, such as the sensation of texture during lateral movement on a surface.

Task-Specific Design Optimization and Fabrication for Inflated-Beam Soft Robots with Growable Discrete Joints

1 code implementation8 Mar 2021 Ioannis Exarchos, Brian H. Do, Fabio Stroppa, Margaret M. Coad, Allison M. Okamura, C. Karen Liu

Soft robot serial chain manipulators with the capability for growth, stiffness control, and discrete joints have the potential to approach the dexterity of traditional robot arms, while improving safety, lowering cost, and providing an increased workspace, with potential application in home environments.

Toward Force Estimation in Robot-Assisted Surgery using Deep Learning with Vision and Robot State

no code implementations4 Nov 2020 Zonghe Chua, Anthony M. Jarc, Allison M. Okamura

The network with both state and vision inputs outperformed a physics-based baseline model in accuracy.

Learning an Action-Conditional Model for Haptic Texture Generation

no code implementations28 Sep 2019 Negin Heravi, Wenzhen Yuan, Allison M. Okamura, Jeannette Bohg

Therefore, it is challenging to model the mapping from material and user interactions to haptic feedback in a way that generalizes over many variations of the user's input.
