... redundant manipulators Parallel manipulators are widely recognized as efficient machines for applications that require high speed and high acceleration. This is especially true for parallel manipulators similar to the Delta robot manipulator ( 1 ) or to the Par4 manipulator ( 2 ): Both feature...

... motion of the actuators nearer the base results in better motion of the end-effector as compared with other two approaches. We present simulation and experimental results performed on a prototype eight-link planar hyper-redundant manipulator. 26 08 2009 03 03 2010 23 07 2010 23 07...

... of the arm at that cross section. The octopus’s arm lacks a rigid skeleton and the role of material incompressibility in enabling the configuration control is studied. This paper presents a kinematical model for the octopus’s arm. The arm of an octopus is an efficient hyper-redundant manipulator and hence...
