Colonoscopy is a minimally invasive endoscopic procedure to survey, diagnose and treat possible disease in the colon. Clinicians are trained to manipulate a colonoscope while minim...
Abstract - This paper introduces new analyses and algorithms which are essential for the practical implementation of continuous backbone continuum robots. Actuator length limits st...
This paper proposes an inverse kinematic model for deformable robots made entirely of electro-active polymer gel. The required method is to control higher degrees of freedom than ...
— A novel design of a mobile parallel manipulator (MPM), which is composed by a multi-degree of freedom (DOF) parallel robot and an autonomous wheeled mobile platform, is propose...
– In this paper, a model-based impedance control strategy is developed for a 3 DOF parallel manipulator to manage the interaction of the robot with the environment. Kinematic and...
