Abstract:Multi-section continuum robots’ (CRs) behavior is still an outstanding problem because of the highly non-linearity of its equation of motions. To this end, in this paper, particle swarm optimization (PSO) is adopted to solve the inverse kinematic model (IKM) of CRs. First, the CR’s structure is properly described. Then, the aforementioned algorithm is elaborately discussed and implemented in figuring out the IKM of CR and verified through forward kinematic model by choosing the PSO parameters, namely, cognitiv… Show more
