The project focuses on deepening of our understanding of the process of distributed manipulation. A representative set of three types of distributed manipulation systems will be considered: 1) an actuator array (a fixed planar array of many small stationary elements which cooperate to manipulate a large object); 2) a superposition of planar potential fields to manipulate objects (here air flow, using potential field theory); 3) snake-like or tentacle-like robots to wrap, fully or partially, around the manipulated object. On the education front, a wide effort on bringing mechatronics into the mechanical engineering curriculum will be made.

该项目的重点是加深我们对分布式操作过程的理解。一组有代表性的三种类型的分布式操纵系统将被考虑：1）一个执行器阵列（许多小的静止元件的固定的平面阵列，其协作以操纵大的物体）; 2）平面势场的叠加以操纵物体（这里是空气流，使用势场理论）; 3）蛇形或触角状机器人以完全或部分地围绕被操纵的物体缠绕。在教育方面，将广泛努力将机电一体化纳入机械工程课程。
