Biomimetic Robots

The Biomimetics and Dexterous Manipulation Laboratory, directed by Professor Mark Cutkosky, explores various aspects of robotics for manufacturing and for autonomous biomimetic systems, applying analysis, simulations, and experiments to the design and control of robotic hands, tactile sensors, and force-feedback devices for human-computer interaction. In manufacturing, work focuses on design tools for rapid prototyping. Other applications include small, biologically inspired robots with embedded sensors, actuators, and controllers.
