A pivot joint steering mechanism for tip-everting soft growing robots [PDF]
Frontiers in Robotics and AISoft growing robots (SGRs) navigate confined environments by everting material from the tip while keeping the rest of the body stationary, enabling frictionless navigation. This opens up huge potential for inspection, search, and rescue tasks.

Motion Characteristics Analysis of a Novel Spherical Two-degree-of-freedom Parallel Mechanism
Chinese Journal of Mechanical Engineering, 2022 Current research on spherical parallel mechanisms (SPMs) mainly focus on surgical robots, exoskeleton robots, entertainment equipment, and other fields. However, compared with the SPM, the structure types and research contents of the SPM are not abundant

Kinematic and Dynamic Synthesis of Geared Robotic Mechanisms [PDF]
Journal of Mechanical Design, 1993 This paper describes a methodology for the design of geared robotic mechanisms. It is shown that certain gear-coupled manipulators can be designed to possess kinematic isotropy property at a given end-effector position. For these gear-coupled manipulators, the train values can be treated as a product of two-stage gear reductions.
