Continuum manipulators are a type of robot used for delicate applications, including safe human-robot interactions. Controlling these manipulators for an accurate trajectory, especially in the case of pneumatic actuation, is extremely challenging.

This paper proposes three new dynamic model-based adaptive sliding mode controllers (ASMC) for trajectory tracking control of unmanned ground vehicles (UGV). The controllers combine kinematic and dynamic control to achieve asymptotic stability and finite-

Kinematics and control of frog hindlimb movements [PDF]
1. The determinants of the motion path of the hindlimb were explored in both intact and spinal frogs. In the spinal preparations the kinematic properties of withdrawal and crossed-extension reflexes were studied. In the intact frog the kinematics of withdrawal and swimming movements were examined.

Kinematic controllability and motion planning for the snakeboard [PDF]
The snakeboard is shown to possess two decoupling vector fields, and to be kinematically controllable. Accordingly, the problem of steering the snakeboard from a given configuration at rest to a desired configuration at rest is posed as a constrained static nonlinear inversion problem.

Kinematic Control of 2-wheeled Segway
The Segway is a popular self-balancing two-wheeled vehicle. In this paper, we present a control mechanism for the planar Segway problem. The open-loop analysis validates the fact that the system is unstable by default and there is a need to design a closed-loop feedback to establish control for the system.

Kinematic control of wheeled mobile manipulators [PDF]
We propose a generic scheme to solve the kinematic control problem of wheeled mobile manipulators when the operational motion is imposed. We generalize the Additional Task Method to solve the control problem of these redundant nonholonomic systems.
