Abstract
A robotic manipulator, comprising: a platform (); a first pair of pneumatic artificial muscle (PAM) devices () coupled to the platform () at a first end of the first pair of PAM devices; a second pair of PAM devices () coupled to the platform () at a first end of the second pair of PAM devices; a first pulley () coupling the first pair of PAM devices via a first belt () at a second end of the first pair of PAM devices; a second pulley () coupling the second pair of PAM devices via a second belt () at a second end of the second pair of PAM devices; a U-joint () positioned between the first and second pulleys, wherein the first pulley (), the second pulley (), and the U-joint () are rotatable along a pitch axis (P), a yaw axis (Y), and a roll axis (R); and an actuated object () coupled to the U-joint (), wherein motion of one of the first belt () of the first pair of PAM devices, the second belt () of the second pair of PAM devices, and both the first belt () and the second belt (), cause motion of the actuated object () along one of the pitch axis (P), the yaw axis (Y), and the roll axis (R).
