Robotic Materials Workshop 15-06-2022 - 18-06-2022 Shaping the Future of Robotics through Materials Innovation The goal of this workshop is to bring together a group of international experts working at the intersection of materials science and robotics to discuss how materials innovation can shape the future of robotics. The workshop will feature invited talks that stimulate subsequent organized breakout sessions to discuss key future research themes and to set the course in the field. The meeting will take place at Castle Ringberg in the south of Germany, which offers an inspiring setting to discuss cutting edge research, to initiate new collaborations, and to reinvigorate existing connections.

Haptic Intelligence Workshop 14-11-2018 Haptipedia: An Interactive Database for Selecting, Ideating, and Learning About Grounded Force-Feedback Devices We have developed Haptipedia, a large online gallery of haptic devices with an initial scope of 105 grounded force-feedback devices. Haptipedia was created to be a community resource that supports designers of all persuasions in ideating, finding, designing, and learning about kinesthetic haptic devices. In this AsiaHaptics workshop, you will learn how to use Haptipedia to address YOUR use case, and you can tell us how to make this resource more useful for you.

Haptic Intelligence Workshop 13-06-2018 From Fingertip Mechanics to Tactile Sensation It is well known that the dynamics of the interacting finger mediate the human tactile sensation of materials and textures but its contact dynamics also contribute to other aspects of human cognition such as proprioceptive perception and our capacity to dexterously manipulate objects. The broad range of perceptual phenomena stemming from finger mechanics makes it essential to develop further our understanding of the finger behavior during interaction and its perceptual consequences.
