Assistance robot David helps in the household
Our ability to deftly manipulate objects with our hands is an essential element of our daily lives. To seamlessly integrate robotic systems into our everyday lives, they need similar capabilities. The anthropomorphic robot David has joints with variable stiffness actuators that have mechanically adjustable flexibility in their drive train. One goal in the development is to come closer to human capabilities, especially in terms of dynamics, dexterity and robustness.
