Kinematic Model and Workspace Analysis of Tendon-driven Continuum Robots
Continuum robots have excited increasing attention and effort from robotic community due to their high dexterity and safety. This paper designs a continuum robot equipped with an elastic backbone structure and tendon-driven system. The kinematic model of such robot is formulated and a novel approach to analyze the workspace is developed by identifying the interference between the backbone struc...
متن کاملDesign and Analysis of a Novel Tendon-less Backbone Robot
A new type of backbone robot is presented in this paper. The core idea is to use a cross shape mechanism with the principle of functioning of the scissors linkages, known as a pantograph. Although this continuum arm acts quite similar to tendon-driven robot, this manipulator does not include any tendon in its structure. This design does not suffer from the weaknesses of the continuum design suc...
متن کاملKinematic Modeling of an EAP Actuated Continuum Robot for Active Micro-endoscopy
An active micro-endoscope based on concentric tubes, an emerging class of continuum robots, is presented hereby. It is designed to reach the digestive tube and the stomach for early cancer detection and intervention. The manipulator is constructed from three flexible, telescopic, and actuated tubes. The actuators are based on Electro-Active Polymer electrodes coated and patterned around the tub...
متن کاملSIMBA: Tendon-Driven Modular Continuum Arm with Soft Reconfigurable Gripper
In this paper, we describe the conceptual design and implementation of the Soft Compliant Manipulator for Broad Applications (SIMBA) manipulator, which is designed and developed for participating in the RoboSoft Grand Challenge 2016. In our novel design, we have proposed (1) a modular continuum arm with independent actuation units for each module, to increase maintainability; (2) a soft reconfi...
متن کاملValidation study of the extended theory of reasoned action questionnaire for drug abuse prevention in adolescents
The aim of this study was to design and assess the validity and reliability of the theory of reasoned action extended version questionnaire for drug abuse avoidance in Iranian male adolescents. Validity and reliability of a measure consisting of TRA and self efficacy construct for substance abuse avoidance was assessed by scientific methods. Cross-sectional data was collected via self-admini...
