About
This research aimed to develop an assembled space platform that would benefit greatly from a ubiquitous, highly compliant, and flexible system that would be able to conduct the same if not similar inspections that provide validation of assembly. Soft robotics is a promising avenue of robotics research that could be applied to the validation of space operations. Soft robots developed as of now have exhibited their working functionality in water or on land, actuated pneumatically, using electroactive polymers, or cables. Most soft robotics research with regards to space applications is relatively new. This research inspired me to take on projects that push boundaries in robotics and soft materials.
