Control of a Discrete Planar Tentacle Robot
Journal Title: RECENT - Year 2011, Vol 12, Issue 33
Abstract
The paper deals with a special class of robotic arm, the tentacle robot. First, the discrete dynamic model of the tentacle arm is analyzed. The dynamic model of the hyper-redundant arm with continuum elements in conjunction with the electro-rheological fluid is discussed and the discrete planar model based to the nonlinear observer will be developed. Also, numerical simulations of the arm motion are presented.
