Faculty Instructor: Dr. Karim Muci
The project objective is to design a soft robotic gripper capable of safely handling soft fruits, using peaches as the primary test. The gripper will use soft and flexible materials so it can gently conform to the shape while maintaining a secure grip. The gripper will also work efficiently and be a reliable attachment to the UR 7e COBOT robotic arm with the potential of being useable in different robotic systems. This product will have applications in agriculture, produce retail, and any other industry related to soft foods.
