..., staggered, mortise-tenon flexible joint and an adsorption unit was proposed, and the kinematics model of the robot was established by Denavit-Hartenberg method to analyze the mapping relationship between its bending characteristic and structural parameters. Moreover, a robotic shape-sensing method based...

...Riyaz Ali Shaik; Elizabeth Rufus Purpose This paper aims to review the shape sensing techniques using large area flexible electronics (LAFE). Shape perception of humanoid robots using tactile data is mainly focused. Design/methodology/approach Research papers on different shape sensing...
