Creative Soft Robotics

I just found out about this project by HCII called Wireality. The team has developed a system that helps VR users feel virtual objects: https://dl.acm.org/doi/abs/10.1145/3313831.3376470 The device uses a wearable, modular spring loaded cable system that can control the force upon individual joints in the hand and arm. They can programmatically control the joints based

I found this article on Deezen describing dresses with fabrics that contract and change color appearance depending on the wearer’s surroundings, resembling a chameleon’s ability. https://www.dezeen.com/2019/10/28/flowing-water-standing-time-ying-gao-chameleon-autonomous-dress-fashion/ The color-changing dress components themselves utilize color sensors, light sensors, and tiny cameras linked to a raspberry PI to gather information about the environmental context. Based on the data,
