Evaluation of Two Tension Sensors for Cable‐Driven Parallel Manipulators
Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Cable‐driven parallel manipulators (CDPMs) constitute a class of parallel robots in which the frame is connected to the end‐effector through a set of cables. The weight reduction achieved by replacing rigid links with cables, along with their exceptionally large workspace, makes CDPMs suitable for applications such as positioning devices ...

Communication, sensing, computing and energy harvesting in smart cities
IET Smart Cities, Volume 4, Issue 4, Page 265-274, December 2022., 2022 Abstract A smart city provides diverse services based on real‐time data obtained from different devices deployed in urban areas. These devices are largely battery‐powered and widely placed. Therefore, providing continuous energy to these devices and ensuring their efficient sensing and communications are critical for the wide deployment of smart cities.
