Abstract: Dielectric elastomers (DE) are incompressible rubberlike solids whose electrical and structural responses are highly nonlinear and strongly coupled. Thanks to their coupled electromechanical response, intrinsic lightness, ...

Abstract: This paper outlines the design and the development of a novel robotic hand exoskeleton (HE) conceived for haptic interaction in the context of virtual reality (VR) and teleoperation (TO) applications. The device allows ...

Abstract: This article introduces the design and the experimental validation of the Trackhold, a novel mechanical motiontracker for upper limb physical rehabilitation. The Trackhold is based on a passively balanced mechanism that ...
