FoamBot: Computational Navigation of Foam Materials with Microrobots
As an emerging technology, microrobots have many promising applications, including environmental monitoring and targeted drug delivery. One key component is the ability to navigate through foam-like materials, which requires accurate modeling of the cellular matrix and its interaction with the robot. The goal of this thesis is to build a simulation model for foam that is both in good agreement with observations from physical prototypes without any external inputs and when interacting with a rigid robot.
