On-Limb Orbiting Robot: Proprioceptive Diameter Estimation and Orthogonal Grip–Orbit Control
On-body robots that travel around a human limb must keep a firm enough grip to avoid slipping or detaching, while never pressing hard enough to hurt—a balance that is hardest to strike precisely when the robot is orbiting the limb and gravity continually redistributes the contact loads. This paper presents an open, non...
