A New and Versatile Adjustable Rigidity Actuator with Add-on Locking Mechanism (ARES-XL)
Adjustable compliant actuators are being designed and implemented in robotic devices because of their ability to minimize large forces due to impacts, to safely interact with the user, and to store and release energy in passive elastic elements. Conceived as a new force-controlled compliant actuator...
