RRT-Based Path Planning for Follow-the-Leader Motion of Hyper-Redundant Manipulators

IEEE/RJS International Conference on Intelligent RObots and Systems, 2021
Hyper-redundant manipulators with slender body and high dexterity are widely applied for operations in confined spaces. Among the motion planning methods for these operations, the follow-the-leader motion controller is generally developed to avoid the ...

A Kinematics Method of Hyper-Redundant Manipulators Based on Morphologic Space Constraints

IEEE Transactions on Systems, Man, and Cybernetics: Systems
While a great number of degree of freedom (DOF) of hyper-redundant manipulators brings superior dexterity, it also challenges the more complicated kinematics algorithms.

Kinematics of Hyper-Redundant Manipulators

1991
A “hyper-redundant” manipulator is a redundant manipulator with a large or infinite relative degree of redundancy. This paper presents a novel approach to the forward and inverse kinematics of these manipulators which is based on the differential geometry of curves.

Hyper redundant modular manipulator arm

2000 26th Annual Conference of the IEEE Industrial Electronics Society. IECON 2000. 2000 IEEE International Conference on Industrial Electronics, Control and Instrumentation. 21st Century Technologies and Industrial Opportunities (Cat. No.00CH37141), 2002
We introduce the hyper-redundant modular manipulator arm (HRMA) ground test system, which is the ground experimental model for the technology of orbital maintenance system (OMS). OMS consists of three steps: 1) inspecting the satellite, 2) re-orbiting the useless satellite, and 3) simply repairing satellites in space.

A new spatial hyper-redundant manipulator

Robotics and Computer-Integrated Manufacturing, 2009
This work presents a novel hyper-redundant manipulator. Such a manipulator is built with a variable number of tandem-assembled modules. Each module consists of a 3-dof parallel manipulator with asymmetric extremities in which moving platform possesses mixed motions with respect to the base platform.

A discrete model for the configuration control of hyper-redundant manipulators

Proceedings of International Conference on Robotics and Automation, 2002
The macroscopic geometric shape of a hyper-redundant manipulator can be described by a curve which is called the reference or backbone curve (BBC). In this paper, a discrete model with compliance is developed for the BBC that is a practical approximation to a continuous elastic cord. Based on the proposed model, kinematic redundancy is resolved through

A Variable-Stiffness Planning Method Considering Both the Overall Configuration and Cable Tension for Hyper-Redundant Manipulators

IEEE/ASME transactions on mechatronics
In order to realize the flexible capture of noncooperative targets, a variable-stiffness planning method considering both the overall configuration and cable tension for a hyper-redundant manipulator is proposed in this article.

Trajectory Planning for Hyper-Redundant Manipulators Based on Lie Theory

International Conference on Real-time Computing and Robotics, 2021
Trajectory planning has always been an area worthy of attention in the application of hyper-redundant robots. This paper proposes a method using Lie group to achieve trajectory planning for hyper-redundant manipulators.

A Local Obstacle Avoidance and Global Planning Method for the Follow-the-Leader Motion of Coiled Hyper-Redundant Manipulators

IEEE Transactions on Industrial Informatics
Cable-driven hyper-redundant manipulators (CDHRMs) enable unique tasks in confined spaces while presenting challenges for collision-free path planning. This article introduces a novel planning method called the stepwise follow-the-leader (SFTL) algorithm.
