This Demonstration shows the simple movements of an Arm-Z oblique swivel joint chain manipulator. Arm-Z is a conceptual manipulator composed of congruent modules, each having one degree of freedom (1-DOF), a relative twist.

Details

This work was completed as part of the project titled Arm-Z: an extremely modular hyperredundant low-cost manipulator – development of control methods and efficiency analysis, funded by OPUS 17 research grant No. 2019/33/B/ST8/02791 supported by the National Science Centre, Poland.
