SHAPE: Simultaneous Water Hydraulic Actuation and Position Estimation of a Sensorless Remote Actuator through a Thin and Long Flexible Tube

Yuki Nakamura, Shuto Yoshimura, Tomoyuki Noda, Yoshihiro Nakata

Robot sensors and electronic equipment are prone to failure in harsh environments. With water hydraulic drive, thin and long tubes enable remote operation without actuator-side sensors. Furthermore, the elasticity of the tubes reduces the impedance of the joints (actuators), bene…Read more
