The device is a gripper that is exclusively powered by artificial muscles and neurons.
Now, the engineer wants to use his startup's very first product – a type of sensory fingertip for industrial robots – to substantially expand on robots' fields of application and allow conventional robot grippers to perform more delicate tasks.The applications are many such as handling fragile items, removing rubber products from injection molds, harvesting fruits, and vegetables, or even being implemented at home and in medical care.
Henke's team is ready to begin initial practical tests in the coming weeks of the first demonstrator to exhibit the interplay of touch-sensitive skin, manufactured muscles, and artificial neurons. The device is a gripper that is exclusively powered by artificial muscles, which are, in turn, controlled by artificial neurons. It is further equipped with a tactile skin that can feel how and where an object is being gripped.To achieve this impressive milestone, PowerON worked closely with TU Dresden and is a partner in the large-scale research project "6G-life."
"This partnership is a testament to the cooperation potential between science and industry and how such collaborative projects can contribute to quickly transferring scientific findings into commercial products," said Prof. Andreas Richter, Chair of Microsystems and Director of the Institute of Semiconductors and Microsystems.of a new skin that could allow robots to feel.
