Abstract
This Phase II SBIR proposal responds to a need for adaptive compliant actuator hardware that can adapt to a wide range of applications for human-robot interactions. Some tasks require high forces to lift, pull, or carry and other tasks require fine motor control and precise motion. Human-robot interactions also require actuators that are intrinsically safe for the human interface.
