This paper presents the design and analysis of a novel 3-degree-of-freedom (3-DOF)
parallel manipulator equipped with self-sensing Ni-Ti (Nitinol) actuators. The manipulator's …

In this paper a methodology is presented for the development of a silicon microgripper with
actuators made by shape memory alloys (SMA). The kinematic architecture for the …

Shape-memory alloy (SMA) is a suitable actuator for a micro mobile robot due to its size and
weight. However, length of SMA actuators is known to be nonlinear and hysteretic. We can …

A comparative kinematics analysis was conducted between natural Aurelia aurita medusa
and biomimetic robotic jellyfish (Robojelly). A resistance feedback controller was …
