A hyper-redundant manipulator
. . . a. O...O~...*..I.~..rrlr.r.,..........~.~~~~~~b~...~.~~~*.~*.~~*~~~*.~.~~~~~~.~~8~b#~~*M~906~*~ “Hyper-redundant” manipulators have a very large number of actuatable degrees of freedom. The benefits of hyper-redundant robots include the ability to avaoid obstacles, increased robustness with respect to mechanical failure, and the ability to perform new forms of robot locomotion and graspin...
متن کاملSoft, Rotating Pneumatic Actuator.
This article describes a soft pneumatic actuator that generates cyclical motion. The actuator consists of several (three, four, or five) chambers (arranged around the circumference of a circle surrounding a central rod) that can be actuated independently using negative pressure (or partial vacuum). Sequential actuation of the four-chamber device using reduced pressure moves the central rod cycl...
متن کاملTowards a Hyper-Redundant Haptic Display
This paper discusses how to utilise the known advantages of redundancy in the design of haptic interfaces. The use of additional joints allows a significantly larger workspace, while reducing the overall device size. Moreover, an increase in a variety of dexterity measures and a singularity robust redundancy resolution can be achieved. Besides a review of standard redundant kinematical designs ...
متن کاملPneumatic Soft Actuator for Human Assist Technology
In the coming advanced age society, an innovative technology to assist the activities of daily living of elderly and disabled people and the heavy work in nursing is desired. To develop such a technology, an actuator safe and friendly for human is required. It should be small, lightweight and has to provide a proper softness. We call such an actuator soft actuator. A pneumatic rubber artificial...
متن کاملSimultaneous Force and Stiffness Control of a Pneumatic Actuator
This paper proposes a new approach to the design of a robot actuator with physically variable stiffness. The proposed approach leverages the dynamic characteristics inherent in a pneumatic actuator, which behaves in essence as a series elastic actuator. By replacing the four-way servovalve used to control a typical pneumatic actuator with a pair of three-way valves, the stiffness of the series ...
