Abstract

Emerging research has demonstrated the viability of on-textile actuation mechanisms, however, an easily customizable and versatile on-cloth actuation mechanism is yet to be explored. In this paper, we present ClothTiles along with its rapid fabrication technique that enables actuation of clothes. ClothTiles leverage flexible 3D-printing and Shape-Memory Alloys (SMAs) alongside new parametric actuation designs. We validate the concept of fabric actuation using a base element, and then systematically explore methods of aggregating, scaling, and orienting prospects for extended actuation in garments. A user study demonstrated that our technique enables multiple actuation types applied across a variety of clothes. Users identified both aesthetic and functional applications of ClothTiles. We conclude with a number of insights for the Do-It-Yourself community on how to employ 3D-printing with SMAs to enable actuation on clothes.

This paper presents the development of a SMA (shape memory alloy) spring actuation based 3-dof (three degree of freedom) 3PRP (prismatic-rotary-prismatic) planar parallel manipulator where each limb (3 stands for three limbs) of the manipulator having ...
Modeling and control of two DOF shape memory alloy actuators with applications
Abstract
In this research, we developed several two degree of freedom actuators using shape memory alloy (SMA) springs. We tested these actuators in various applications like: mobile holder, and bio-inspired: fish body, and fish tail. In such applications ...
