Design and analysis of a novel cable-driven parallel robot with variable stiffness and rigid–flexible coupling
This study presents a novel cable-driven parallel robot integrated with rigid–flexible coupling and a variable stiffness system, specifically designed to replicate the motion characteristics of the human cervical spine. Kinematic control of the robot is achieved by establishing a functional relationship between its c...
