A cable-driven parallel manipulator is a manipulator whose end-effector is driven by a
number of parallel cables instead of rigid links. Since cables always have more flexibility …

An alternative approach to standard computed torque with feedback linearization is
proposed in this paper to control cable-driven parallel robots (CDPRs) with highly flexible …

This paper presents the implementation of a vision-based position control for planar cable-
driven parallel robots. The main contribution of this paper contains three objectives. First, a …

The Dynamic Tensegrity Robotics Lab (DTRL) at NASA Ames Research Center is
developing a compliant and distributed tensegrity robotic platform for planetary exploration …

A major open issue in the design and operation of cable-direct-driven-robots (CDDRs) is
ensuring tensile cable forces for any admissible motion of the CDDR. Such a problem is …

Forward kinematics problem of cable robots is very difficult to solve the same as that of
parallel robots and in the contrary to the serial manipulators'. This problem is almost …

Energy harvesting devices designed with intentional nonlinearities offer the possibility of
increased performance under broadband excitations and realistic environmental conditions …

This paper presents a survey of cable-driven robotics. The focus is on suspended designs,
in which a comprehensive review is provided. Attention is given to both applications as well …

In this brief, a planar cable-driven parallel manipulator is controlled using a strictly positive
real compensator, cable pretension is explicitly accounted for, and cable slack is avoided. A …

Cable robots are a type of parallel robot in which cables have replaced the usual rigid arms.
In cable robots, due to the tensile strength of the cable, the workspace analysis is much …
