Real-Time Shape Estimation for Concentric Tube Continuum Robots with a Single Force/Torque Sensor

Shape-sensing in real-time is a key requirement for the development of advanced algorithms for concentric tube continuum robots when safe interaction with the environment is important e.g., for path planning, advanced control, and human-machine interaction. We propose a real-time shape-estimation al...
