Bloom Reconfigurable Soft Robotic Gripper
BioInspired Robotics & Design Laboratory
ᱨᱚᱵᱚᱴᱤᱠᱥ Bloom Reconfigurable Soft Robotic Gripper ᱛᱮ BioInspired Robotics & Design Laboratory Bloom is a soft robotic gripper designed for automated handling and assembly tasks. The gripper is inspired by the human hand and by the cyclic blooming of the Gallic rose. Bloom is made of silicone and is moved by air pressure. Retractable nails allow precise grasping of thin objects. Foldable petals allow the scooping of granular materials. A flexible palm changes the opening width for wide objects. Low and safe pressures are used to switch between the grasping modes. Bloom can handle delicate items safely close to human workers.
