The development of new measurement systems for mobile robots has been a growing interest in recent years, particularly tactile systems based on bioinspired sensor antennae, such as whiskers and antennae found in animals and insects. This work focuses on studying a mobile robot equipped with such sys…
Sensing antenna devices, that mimic insect antennae or mammal whiskers, is an active field of research that still needs new developments in order to become efficient and reliable components of robotic systems. This work reports a new result in the area of signal processing of these devices that allo…
Despite the benefits that the spring based gravity compensation mechanism has brought to the field of rigid robotic manipulators, there have been no substantial efforts toward transferring these developments to the field of flexible link robotics. In this paper, we present an input state feedback li…
In this paper, we present an experimental study concerning the gravity compensation of flexible link arms based on linear springs. In the field of flexible link robotics, the gravity compensation based on counterweights has been successfully applied in the past, but little effort has been made to ex…
