The field of continuum robotics is rapidly develo**. The development of new kinematic
structures, locomotion principles and control strategies is driving the development of new …

In this research paper, we present a comprehensive analysis of the current state of soft
robots actuated with pneumatic artificial muscles and emphasise their distinct advantages …

Generic and high-performance feedback control is still challenging for tendon-driven
continuum robots. Conventional model-based controllers, based on the piecewise constant …

Soft robots distinguish themselves from traditional robots by embracing flexible kinematics.
Because of their recent emergence, there exist numerous uncharted territories, including …

Soft continuum robots, with their flexible and deformable structures, excel in tasks requiring
delicate manipulation and navigation through complex environments. Accurate shape …

Aerial manipulators have seen a rapid uptake for multiple applications, including inspection
tasks and aerial robot–human interaction in building and construction. Whilst single degree …

Most directed energy deposition (DED) implementations employ a rigid end effector to
deposit material layer-by-layer, which is insufficient in cases with space constraints. To …

Soft robots are more human-friendly than rigid-bodied robots. This is due to their soft nature
that does not harm humans while interacting. This work provides the developments and …

Soft continuum robots, inspired by the adaptability and agility of natural soft-bodied
organisms like octopuses and elephant trunks, present a frontier in robotics research …

Faster recovery, reduced trauma, and improved patient outcomes drive innovations in
minimally invasive surgery (MIS). Notwithstanding significant advancements, traditional MIS …
