Inverse displacement analysis of a hyper-redundant bionic trunk-like robot
This article presents the inverse displacement analysis of a hyper-redundant bionic trunk-like robot. The hyper-redundant bionic trunk-like robot is constituted of some parallel mechanism modules in series.

A 'sidewinding' locomotion gait for hyper-redundant robots [PDF]
The kinematics of a form of hyper-redundant mobile robot locomotion which is analogous to the sidewinding locomotion of desert snakes are considered. This form of locomotion can be generated by a repetitive traveling wave of mechanism bending. Using a continuous backbone curve model, algorithms are developed which enable travel in a uniform direction ...

An obstacle avoidance algorithm for hyper-redundant manipulators [PDF]
Novel kinematic algorithms for implementing planar hyperredundant manipulator obstacle avoidance is presented. Unlike artificial potential field methods, the method outlined is strictly geometric. Tunnels are defined in a workspace in which obstacles are presented.

Kinematically optimal hyper-redundant manipulator configurations [PDF]
"Hyper-redundant" robots have a very large or infinite degree of kinematic redundancy. This paper develops new methods for determining "optimal" hyper-redundant manipulator configurations based on a continuum formulation of kinematics. This formulation uses a backbone curve model to capture the robot's essential macroscopic geometric features.

Design and Validation of a Novel Cable-Driven Hyper-Redundant Robot Based on Decoupled Joints
In most of the prior designs of conventional cable-driven hyper-redundant robots, the multiple degree-of-freedom (DOF) bending motion usually has bending coupling effects.

A new geometrical approach to solve inverse kinematics of hyper redundant robots with variable link length [PDF]
In this paper a new approach that generates a general algorithm for n-link hyper-redundant robot is presented. This method uses repetitively the basic inverse kinematics solution of a 2- link robot on some virtual links,where the virtual links are ...

Collision free control of variable length hyper redundant robot manipulator [PDF]
Hyper-redundant robot (HRR) manipulators are useful at navigating convoluted paths, but conventionally complicated to control. The control of a hyper-redundant manipulator is complex due to its redundancy.
