Whitesides Group
Soft Robotics
Research
As an undergraduate at Harvard University, I had the opportunity to assist in the research of soft robotics with the Whitesides Group. Through these various projects, we were able to explore the special capabilities that certain silicon-based robots possess through various forms of actuation. By prototyping unique designs through 3D modeling and silicon casting, we were able to complete several models of soft robotics and evaluate their performance.
