Yet, underlying biomechanics of undulatory swimming which involves the whole body, i.e., anguilliform swimming, remains poorly understood.
Many snake species are proficient swimmers they inspired the building of aquatic snakebots. The primary challenge to test biological hypotheses is to design realistic robots. Key movements and main kinematic parameters are under the control of experimenters, which is impossible to perform when experimenting with living animals. Thus, we report that the proposed pneumagami modules can be utilized for achieving a controllable robotic third arm with higher DoFs and range of motion (RoM) when connected in series.īioinspired robots are useful tools to study complex biomechanical processes of animal locomotion. The experimental results show that the module follows the desired trajectories successfully. Utilizing the models, we design a closed-loop feedback controller to track two different trajectories. Furthermore, we study analytic forward and inverse kinematic models of the pneumagami module. The sensor's transmission is modeled and verified by experiments. As for the sensing, we introduce a novel embedded resistive sensor mechanism utilizing rotary-to-translational transmission. To control the pouch motors, we utilize miniature proportional valves. The module is a 3 degrees of freedom (DoF) parallel robot with two rotational and one translational motion, which is actuated by three antagonistic pneumatic pouch motor pairs attached to three leg joints. This paper presents closed-loop position control of a pneumatically actuated modular robotic platform ‘'pneumagami’' that can be stacked to enlarge work and design space for wearable applications. The conducted experiments demonstrated validity of our approach. A 3-D printed prototype of this continuum manipulator is experimentally evaluated. Third, the reachable workspace of the end effector is enlarged by means of varying the length of the continuum manipulator via controlled contraction and expansion. It reduces the uncontrolled compression when generating normal deflections, thus controlling robot bending is simplified. Second, compared with work elsewhere, this structure demonstrates an effective way of decoupling bending from contraction and expansion.
An analytical method is provided to study the compliance characteristics of the planar spring and derive the compliance matrix to represent the force–deflection relationships, allowing an accurate motion prediction.

With the serial connection of multiple conjoined layers, the manipulator demonstrates linear predictable bending even when executing large bends. In this context, we utilize the linear output motion of each layer of springs. First, it possesses precise linear large-displacement motion. This paper introduces a novel continuum manipulator that integrates multiple layers of compliant planar springs-a structure that provides several notable advantages over existing designs.
There is a surge of research interest in the field of “continuum robotics.” Robots created under this paradigm offer many advantages and represent unique features in terms of flexibility, dexterity, safety, and weight reduction.
