چکیده
Conditions for the workspace of tendon-driven Stew-art platform manipulators are given. For a general 2-dof planar manipulator, these criteria are calculated analytically and illustrated graphically. The methods are developed such that they may be generalized, for mechanisms with more dofs.

Interval Analysis of Controllable Workspace for Cable Robots
Workspace analysis is one of the most important issues in the robotic parallel manipulator design. However, the unidirectional constraint imposed by cables causes this analysis more challenging in the cabledriven redundant parallel manipulators. Controllable workspace is one of the general workspace in the cabledriven redundant parallel manipulators due to the dependency on geometry parameter...
متن کاملEstimating the Controllable Workspace of Tendon-based Stewart Platforms
The controllable workspace of a tendon-based Stewart Platform is the set of postures where forces and torques at the end-eeector can be controlled. A necessary and suucient condition is given for those postures where forces can be controlled; thus, a superset of the controllable workspace can be calculated easily. External forces are modeled as an additional tendon xed at iniinity by introducin...
متن کاملKinematic 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...

Conditions for the workspace of tendon-driven Stewart platform manipulators are given. For a general 2dof planar manipulator, these criteria are calculated analytically and illustrated graphically. The methods are developed such that they may be generalized, for mechanisms with more dofs. INTRODUCTION State of the Art Theory and applications of Stewart platforms (Fig. 1) have been widely examin...
متن کاملA Novel Tele-Operated Flexible Robot Targeted for Minimally Invasive Robotic Surgery
In this paper, a novel flexible robot system with a constrained tendon-driven serpentine manipulator (CTSM) is presented. The CTSM gives the robot a larger workspace, more dexterous manipulation, and controllable stiffness compared with the da Vinci surgical robot and traditional flexible robots. The robot is tele-operated using the Novint Falcon haptic device. Two control modes are implemented...
