Focus

of Defrost team

Our objective is to introduce innovative methodologies within the soft robotics community to streamline the process of taking soft robots from conceptual designs to practical applications. To bridge the gap between simulation and real-world deployment of soft robots, the team DEFROST focuses on the development of novel techniques in modeling, simulation, and control, for the purpose of ensuring a seamless and efficient transition from simulated environments to real-world implementation of soft robots.
