However, the feasibility of fast and precise end effector positioning for an elastic link arm has been exemplified with ball catching experiments[1] Malzahn, Jörn, Anh Son Phung, and Torsten Bertram. “A Multi-Link-Flexible Robot Arm Catching Thrown Balls.” 7th ...

In February 2011 we got our own BHA and were pretty excited because we knew at that time no-one could do with it what we wanted to do with it: controlling ... Read more
