PME – The Ultimate in Mechanical Engineering

Rob Munnig Schmidt

The role in robotics

Three basic useful areas for robotics

•Sensing and actuation: tactilily and agility, haptics

•Motion system design (Mechatronics)

•Multibody dynamics

Tactile sensing (Staufer)

Research on interfacing from micro to macro world.Challenge: Contamination, reliability
