Research Assistant
Center For Robotics And Biosystems
Sep 2025 — Present · Evanston, IL, US
Working on a research project focused on the Liquid Wire Hand, a soft robotic hand designed to study advanced actuation and control in robotic manipulation. Developing a virtual model of the hand in ROS to visualize motion, understand control parameters, and test actuation logic through simulation.Collaborating on the software-to-hardware integration, using the virtual model to control a physical prototype built from machined aluminum components. Assisting with machining and assembly of custom hand parts, ensuring precision fit and functionality for laboratory testing.Project currently in progress, focused on building a complete digital–physical interface between the simulated and physical Liquid Wire Hand systems.
