− | + | * 3D printing with the development of metallic printed parts, combined with existing multimaterial polymer printed elements. Lightweight devices can be foreseen for robots installed on a patient and easy to manipulate. | |
− | + | * Hydraulic actuation for ensuring small size mechatronic solutions, with easy control with respect to other non-fluidic actuation. | |
− | + | * Sensory substitution or augmentation with tactile feedback, by developing a tactile transducer based on dieleectric electroactive polymers (DEAP). | |
+ | * Smart needle design and fabrication using in particular optical sensing technologies. | ||
