About
Sagar Joshi is pioneering the intersection of soft robotics and intelligent sensing, with a focus on creating compliant, electronics-free systems that mimic biological capabilities. His research spans three key areas: optimizing pneumatic supply systems for soft actuators, developing novel haptic interfaces, and creating multi-modal sensing platforms. His most influential work, "Pneumatic Supply System Parameter Optimization for Soft Actuators" (66 citations), established foundational methods for improving the performance and portability of soft pneumatic actuators. Joshi's innovative "Haptigami" fingertip haptic interface (50 citations) delivers both vibrotactile and 3-DoF cutaneous force feedback, advancing virtual reality and rehabilitation technologies. He has also made significant contributions to CMOS-inspired complementary fluidic circuits for soft robots (43 citations), enabling lightweight, electronics-free control systems. His recent work on multi-modal deformation and temperature sensing (37 citations) pushes toward context-sensitive machines with human-like somatosensory capabilities. With over 265 total citations across his publications, Joshi continues to shape the future of soft robotics through innovations in actuator design, sensorless force estimation, and robotic disassembly for sustainable recycling applications.
