Researchers teaching robots to use color when moving objects

Researchers at Michigan State University’s College of Engineering are integrating photoelastic gel for vision-based, tactile gel-robots. The goal is to help assistive robots be better at grasping various items.

Research at Michigan State University is focused on teaching robots to use colors to perceive, visualize, and interpret interactions when manipulating objects. A force-interpreting optical system is being developed so robots can distinguish and manipulate soft and fragile objects – which will be particularly helpful for medical and other assistive robots.
