PARALLEL ROBOTS Analysis of parallel robots: geometry kinematics dynamics Patented parallel robots for: translational motion orientational motion Synthesis of parallel robots for improved performances: simpler control; better real-time performances; greater dexterity; enhanced actuator operation; limited singularity problems.

CABLE ROBOTS Collaboration: INRIA Sophia Antipolis, Équipe COPRIN (Dr: Jean-Pierre Merlet) Service Robotics for Assistance and Rehabilitation : cost  mechanical simplicity; high degree of modularity; adaptability to users needs and environment. Cable-Driven Parallel Robots: reduced manufacturing and assembling costs; ample workspace; mechanical modularity. Activity in Bologna: Mechanical problems (kinetostatic analysis, stability analysis, etc.)

HUMAN-MACHINE PHYSICAL INTERFACES (HMPI) Collaboration: SCUOLA SUPERIORE SANT’ANNA (Pisa, Italy) Design of novel HMPI kinematic architectures. Design of novel actuation systems for HMPI: Based on Dielectric Elastomers Large deformations Large force (power)-to-weight ratios Low costs [ <0.5€/W vs. >3€/W of traditional EM drives ]; Large shock-insensitivity; Different actuators geometries have been studied and optimized V = 0kV 0kV 6kV

COMPLIANT MECHANISMS and SOFT MATERIALS Collaboration: Group of Mechatronic Design, UNIBO (Prof. G. Vassura) Design of compliant fingers (robotic grippers / orthesis) Reduction of assembly costs Monolithic prototypes Design soft covers similar to biological skin: Hardness similar to human thumb Better friction properties Reduced thickness → easier to accommodate mechanical parts Finger prototype

ROBOTIC HANDS Collaboration: Group of Mechatronic Design, DIEM/DEIS Mechanical design of robotic hands Endoskeletal structure articulated by means of non conventional joints sliding compliant Actuated by means of tendons Surface compliance through a purposely designed soft cover Systematic parts integration Reduction of assembly complexity Reduction of weight and cost of the overall hand system increased "affordability."
