Hyper Redundant Manipulators [PDF]
The research group from the Faculty of Automation, Computers and Electronics, University of Craiova, Romania, started working in research field of hyper redundant robots over 25 years ago. The experiments used cables and DC motors or stepper motors. The rotation of these motors rotates the cables which by correlated screwing and unscrewing of their ...

A Computational Model of Hybrid Trunk-like Robots for Synergy Formation in Anticipation of Physical Interaction [PDF]
Trunk-like robots have attracted a lot of attention in the community of researchers interested in the general field of bio-inspired soft robotics, because trunk-like soft arms may offer high dexterity and adaptability very similar to elephants and ...

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.

An evolutionary approach for the motion planning of redundant and hyper-redundant manipulators [PDF]
The trajectory planning of redundant robots is an important area of research and efficient optimization algorithms are needed. The pseudoinverse control is not repeatable, causing drift in joint space which is undesirable for physical control. This paper
