An Analytic Method for the Kinematics and Dynamics of a Multiple-Backbone Continuum Robot

Continuum robots have been the subject of extensive research due to their potential use in a wide range of applications. In this paper, we propose a new continuum robot with three backbones, and provide a unified analytic method for the kinematics and dynamics of a multiple-backbone continuum robot....
