MEC1281 Effective Communication T6

  MEC 1281 Summary Analysis Draft #3 By Chan Yong Sheng 22th Feb 2021   According to the article, “Soft Robotic Arm…” (2020), Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) researchers have developed a soft robot that can know its position in a 3D environment that uses its sensorized skin. The soft robot has its own distinctive functions and feature. One of the functions of soft robots is their soft sensors. Soft robots use soft sensors that are conductive silicone sheets that had been cut into kirigami patterns. These soft sensors have “piezoresistive” properties, that are able to change in electrical resistance when it is strained. When the soft sensors are deformed as the soft robots are stretching and compressing, the electrical resistance is converted into an output voltage that is then used as a signal correlation to that movement. Soft sensors are able to be fabricated using off-the-shelf materials. The soft sensor is been fused using plasma bonding. Plas...

  According to the article, “Soft Robotic Arm…” (2020), Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) researchers have developed a soft robot that can know its position in a 3D environment that uses its sensorized skin. Soft robots are not ready for users as it need more testing in real world environments to have a final design. These soft robots use soft sensors that are conductive silicone sheets that had been cut into kirigami patterns. These soft sensors have “piezoresistive” properties, that are able to change in electrical resistance when it is strained. When the soft sensors are deforms as the soft robots are stretching and compressing the electrical resistance is converted into an output voltage that is then used as a signal correlation to that movement. Soft sensors are able to be fabricated using off the shelf materials. Soft robots have an advantage compared to robots with the traditional rigid design. Because of its infinite number of movements that the soft rob...

  According to the article, “Soft Robotic Arm…” (2020), Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) researchers have developed a soft robot that can know its position in a 3D environment that uses its sensorized skin. One the future goal of soft robots is to able to make artificial limbs that can more decorously in manipulate objects on the environment. “Think of your own body: You can close your eyes and reconstruct the world based on feedback from your skin,”(Rus,n.d). Soft robots have an advantage compared to robots with the traditional rigid design. Because of its infinite number of movements that the soft robots are able to make at any time it needs a flexible sensor . They do not rely on cameras to provide feedback which is unideal for actual soft robot applications. These soft robots use soft sensors that are conductive silicone sheets that had been cut into kirigami patterns. These soft sensors have “piezoresistive” properties, that are able to change i...

According to the article, “Soft Robotic Arm…” (2020), Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) researchers have developed a soft robot that can know its position in a 3D environment that uses its sensorized skin. Soft robots have an own advantageous compared to the traditional rigid design. Due to its infinite number of movement that the soft robots able to make at any time is having its flexible sensors. It does not rely on cameras to provide feedback which is unideal for actual soft robot applications. Soft robots have its ability to have an infinite number of movements due to that it has its limitation in the “control”. MIT researchers built a neural network that able to do away with most of the heavy lifting by filtering out the noise to capture useful feedback signals. Now MIT researchers have developed a new type of soft robots that reduces the number of variables needed for their latest model to process. Soft robots have able to have  infinite number of movement due to t...

According to the article, “Soft Robotic Arm uses flexible sensors” (2020), MIT researchers have empowered a ductile robotic arm that bears a resemblance to an elephant trunk to comprehend its design in 3D space by make use of just movement and position information from its “Sensorized” skin. The structure of the robotic arm is approve by the professional by which it can expect its position as it swings around and extends. The robotic arm’s configuration is melded with sensors to create a profound neural network to do most of the labor work by filtering out the noise to identify the useful feedback signals. Experts want to use these soft robotic trunks, for instance, to orient and able to control themselves automatically to pick the items up and interacts with the world. A newly made model has been accepted to kinematically describe the shape of the robot by which it decreases the changes required of the professional to their design to process.  Rob Matheson (2020) “soft robotic ar...

Dear Professor Brad I’m Chan Yong Sheng a first-year Student at the Singapore Institute of Technology I am writing to introduce myself as one of the students in your effective communication class. My educational background is that I started at Institute of Technical Education  in aerospace nitec then when to higher nitec in mechatronics engineering able to go to Singapore Poly in electrical and electronic engineering and now in mechanical engineering at SIT. The reason why I chose mechanical engineering for my degree is that I due to my interest computer.  I enjoyed  learning how to build a computer and knowing the latest technology or computer part that users able to buy on the consumer market this make me to built my very own computer. My strength  is I able to communicate with people and work with them in schoolwork or projects as I work in F&B before I learn how to communicate with the people working with me and customers. ...

"Employers identify communication as one of the basic competencies every graduate should have, asserting that the ability to communicate is valuable for obtaining employment and maintaining successful job performance." -Sherwyn Morreale, Michael Osborn & Judy Pearson, Professors of Communication (2000) From this quote what I think communication is the very first thing that that employer see when hiring someone. Employers can see how you respond to their questions so that they able to get to know employee better. communication is another key in Maintaining successful job performance employers sees how employee interact with other employees and customers.
