New research enables powered prosthetics to dynamically respond to the wearer’s environment and help amputees walk. Wearers of the robotic leg could walk on a treadmill almost as fast as an ...

Models of the human brain, patterned on engineering control theory, may some day help researchers control such neurological diseases as epilepsy, Parkinson's and migraines says Penn State researcher.

Engineering principles developed only 150 years ago were found to have evolved first in biological circuitry that controls cell growth, according to new research. In the last 150 years, engineers have ...

We have considerable expertise in MPC as a powerful tool for providing optimal control in dynamic environments, ensuring real-time performance and adaptability. Our work includes developing predictive ...

Imagine having a continuum soft robotic arm bend around a bunch of grapes or broccoli, adjusting its grip in real time as it ...

Aaron D. Ames is the Bren Professor of Mechanical and Civil Engineering and Control and Dynamical Systems at the California Institute of Technology. He received a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering and a ...

A University of Texas (UT) at Dallas professor applied robot control theory to enable powered prosthetics to dynamically respond to the wearer's environment and help amputees walk. In research ...
