Personal profile

Research areas

We work toward developing soft robots, a new brand of robots that can adaptively interact with complex environments and cooperate safely with humans thanks to their highly deformable body. To achieve this goal, our research group transfers elegant material ideas from Nature to robotics to build bioinspired soft robots with embodied intelligence and learning capabilities.
