Comparison of actuation schemes for wire-driven parallel robots [PDF]
There are two main systems that can be used to coil and uncoil the wires of a wire-driven parallel robots: a rotary motor that turns a drum on which the wire is coiled or a linear motor with a pulley system.

Kinematic analysis of a single-loop reconfigurable 7R mechanism with multiple operation modes [PDF]
This paper presents a novel one-degree-of-freedom (1-DOF) single-loop reconfigurable 7R mechanism with multiple operation modes (SLR7RMMOM), composed of seven revolute (R) joints, via adding a revolute joint to the overconstrained Sarrus linkage.
