Binary manipulator; Discrete actuation; Hyper-redundant manipulator; Inverse kinematics; Obstacle avoidance. Abstract In this paper, a newmethod is proposed for solving the obstacle avoidance problem of discretely actuated hyper-redundant manipulators. In each step of the solution, the closest collision to the base is removed and then the configuration of the next part of the manipulator is mod...
