Current Projects

For improved control of surgical robots, tissue properties are displayed in a tactile manner. (Info as PDF)

Design and implementation of a slender soft aquatic robot with the aim of researching and technically approximating natural, anguilliform locomotion based on the model of the eel. (Info as PDF)

Implementation of a terrestrial robot for exploring rough terrain based on the wheel-leg end effector principle. The main focus here is on reducing energy consumption, improving obstacle suitability and alternation compensation.

Like humans, birds are bipeds, but they walk very differently. With their horizontal torso, for example, they are models for a "walking bipedal table" with sensors. (Info as PDF)

The aim is to develop a cost- and handling-optimized device for electronically measuring and recording the thickness growth of trees as a contribution to forest monitoring against the background of the restructuring of our forests.

The focus is on the development of biologically inspired grippers for special technical gripping tasks.(Video)

For the construction of an exoskeleton, knowledge from biorobotics and ergonomics is combined and further developed. (Info as PDF)
