IntroductionWhat is the Robotic Grasper?
Hybrid between robotics and soft robotics
Improvement for handling materials
Mechanical analog of the human hand
Main Goals
Make Robotic Grasper fully autonomous
Attach the PDMS Grippers onto arm
Programming linear actuator

Ethical IssuesMedical
Robotic surgeries
Ethical issues arise when problems occur
Balance autonomy and human control
Labor
Human workers vs Robot workers
Robots could be cheaper in the long run
Human workers lose out

Environmental ImpactsPolydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) is a type of silicone
Used in our air chambers
No harmful effects on organisms in the environment
According to Ullmann’s Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry
Bisphenol A is a synthetic compound
Used in Lexan components of Robotic Grasper
National Institutes of Health and Food and Drug Administration concerns
Potential effects on young children
Disposal of grasper and keep away from children as a precaution

Automatizing the GrasperProgramming grasper to move and pick up objects
How? FlowBotics Studio
What is FlowBotics? Gives visual representation of module
A program that can use images as “code”
Actions based on graphical images
Graphical images are recorded and performed

Controllable Airflow
Using Linear Actuators
What are Linear Actuators? Creates motion in a straight line
Purpose Applies force onto syringe
Syringe pumps air into gripper
Gripper inflates/deflates
![Page 8: Robotic Grasper Members Michelle Acosta Hiram Do Brendon Jacinto Leo Li Romyl Lopez Christopher Nguyen Ka Ho So Faculty Advisor: Aaron Ohta](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022051821/5697bfeb1a28abf838cb7ea2/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Designing a suitable GripperDesigning a mold Creates mold for the Gripper
Using PDMS to fill mold What is PDMS?
PDMS (a.k.a Polydimethylsiloxane) Silicone based organic polymer
Characteristics of PDMS Clear, inert, non-toxic, and non-flammable Soft, rubbery, and elastic
