Kinematics The LWR III has 7 revolute joints for good manipulation capabilities in a changing workspace ... For applications using tools or grippers mainly, an alternative configuration as pitch-roll ...

Instead, the configuration space of a robot system is often "curved." For example, the configuration space of a two joint robot arm (with revolute joints) is properly described as a torus, not a plane ...

This article presents a novel architecture of a parallel mechanism whose base sits on the human shoulders with 4 parallel chains, each chain having a revolute-revolute-universal-revolute (RRUR) ...

The idea behind their work is to create individual modules and joint ... robot. Some example joints they propose are “prismatic” joints, allowing for linear motion, and “revolute” joints ...

The device could have applications in robotics and other devices. It can also transmit or attenuate vibration since non-stiff joints don’t pass vibrations as easily as stiff ones. The video ...

In this paper, we delve into the detailed exploration of our proposed method, designed for humanoid robots with multiple DOFs. The concept is shown in Fig. 1. The study centers on the development and ...

Researchers have conducted an experiment demonstrating that people experience a Sense of Joint Agency (SoJA) with a robot ...

Research and development in the field of robotics, systems science and automation is interdisciplinary by nature. For this reason, tools and methods from all engineer­ing sciences, from computer ...

One way to bridge that gap is building biohybrid robots that merge synthetic machinery with biological components like animal muscles, bacteria, or plants. But living muscles are very hard to keep ...

Robots have been working in the manufacturing ... mechanical and new materials technologies, the joint research team has optimized the design to address safety issues, leading to more dexterous ...

The best robot vacuums employ super-smart navigation technology, pick up a significant amount of debris and operate nearly independently. After over a month of testing seven top-rated robot ...
