Optimal Reachability with Obstacle Avoidance for Hyper-redundant and Soft Manipulators
We address an optimal reachability problem in constrained environments for hyper-redundant and soft planar manipulators. Both the discrete and continuous devices are inextensible and they are characterized by a bending moment, representing a natural resistance to leave the position at rest, an inequality constraint forcing the bending below a fixed ...

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.

Redundant manipulators are flexible enough to adapt to complex environments, but their controller is also required to be specific for their extra degrees of freedom.

A modal approach to hyper-redundant manipulator kinematics [PDF]
This paper presents novel and efficient kinematic modeling techniques for "hyper-redundant" robots. This approach is based on a "backbone curve" that captures the robot's macroscopic geometric features. The inverse kinematic, or "hyper-redundancy resolution," problem reduces to determining the time varying backbone curve behavior.

Task-Based Motion Planning Using Optimal Redundancy for a Minimally Actuated Robotic Arm
In planning robotic manipulations, heuristic searches are commonly considered impractical due to the high dimensionality of the problem caused by redundancy in the kinematic chain.
