... and experimentally validated its performance at the cable-driven soft robot test bed. The proposed updating algorithm to estimate the unknown state parameter a(k) is given by: (3) a ^ i ( k ) = a ^ i − 1 ( k ) + c i ( k ) e i − 1 ( k + 1 ) x i − 1 ( k...

... scheme for a cable-driven soft robot with a fixed camera observing the motions. The intrinsic and extrinsic parameters of the camera can be adapted online so that tedious camera calibration work can be eliminated. It is acknowledged that kinematics-based control can be only applied into tasks in the free...
