Stiffness- and Buoyancy-Tunable Underwater Manipulator
In this project, completed as part of my graduate research at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa, I designed and built a bio-inspired underwater robotic manipulator that combines stiffness tuning, buoyancy-driven orientation control, and a detachable end effector for manipulation in fragile, confine...
