Overview
The Programmable Stiffness Joint is a device that takes a user input (turning a simple dial) and adjusts its stiffness to the desired level.
The goal of our project is:
This is how it works:
We will discuss:
Mechanical Design
The primary structural components used in this device are:
The sensors/actuators used are:
