TrussBot: Modeling, Design, and Control of a Compliant, Helical Truss of Tetrahedral Modules

Modular and truss robots offer the potential of high reconfigurability and great functional flexibility, but common implementations relying on rigid components often lead to highly complex actuation and control requirements. This paper introduces a new type of modular, compliant robot: TrussBot. Tru…
