Force-Sensing Actuator with a Compliant Flexure-Type Joint for a Robotic Manipulator

This paper deals with the mechatronic design of a novel self-sensing motor-to-joint transmission to be used for the actuation of robotic dexterous manipulators. Backdrivability, mechanical simplicity and efficient flexure joint structures are key concepts that have guided the mechanical design ratio...
