Liquid Metal Actuators
Abstract: This thesis contributes to the field of soft actuators by introducing a generalized framework of actuators from liquid metals. The evolution of robotic actuators has enabled robots to achieve a diversity of motions. Like natural muscles, which converts chemical energy into mechanical work in response to electrical stimuli from the nervous system, actuators are [...]

Learning Structured World Model for Deformable Object Manipulation
Abstract: Manipulation of deformable objects challenges common assumptions in robotic manipulation, such as low-dimension state representation, known dynamics, and minimal occlusion. Deformable objects have high intrinsic state representation, complex dynamics with high degrees of freedom, and severe self-occlusion. These properties make them difficult for state estimation and planning. In this thesis, we introduce benchmarks and [...]
