Coaxial Integrated Tendon-Driven Actuator: Design, Modeling, Control, and Performance Analysis

RA-L 2024

In this letter, a novel tendon-driven actuator is presented for anthropomimetic robots, mimicking the functionality of a spindle muscle. This actuator can contract and relax, and its tension output can be measured and controlled. The proposed actuator features an innovative space-saving co-axial win

A Structure for Fast Stiffness-Variation and Omnidirectional-Steering Continuum Manipulator

RA-L 2021

Stiffness variation is useful in soft robots, especially for continuum manipulators which have a high slenderness ratio. Softness intrinsically gives robots high flexibility of movement, but stiffness gives the robots enough carrying capacity. Many types of continuum manipulators can change their st
