Design of a New Nonlinear Stiffness Compliant Actuator and Its Error Compensation Method

Compliant actuators are more advantageous than stiff actuators in some circumstances, for example, unstructured environment robots and rehabilitation robots. Compliant actuators are more adaptive and safe. Constant stiffness compliant actuators have some limitations in impedance and bandwidth. Varia...
