Continuum arms are bio-inspired devices that exhibit continuous, smooth bending and generate motion through structural deformation. Rapidly-exploring random trees (RRT) is a traditional approach for performing efficient path planning. RRT approaches are usually based on exploring the configuration s
Continuum arms are more adaptable to their environments and inherently human-friendly compared to their rigid counterparts. Path planning of continuum arms is an active research area with many challenges. The hyper-redundancy of continuum arms, which renders them highly versatile, is their curse in…
Continuum arms, with their mix of compliance, payload, safety, and manipulability, are perfectly suited to serve as co-robots, and their applications range from industry and manufacturing to human healthcare. Their hyper-redundancy serves as their most significant challenge for path planning and pat…
