Building the hardware of
physical intelligence
The Robotics & Intelligent Mechanisms Lab develops core robotic hardware and physical intelligence for dexterous interaction with the real world — robot hands, grippers, compact high-performance actuators, variable transmissions, and proprioceptive, force-aware manipulation.
