| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of the study was to develpe a 7 DOF redundant manipulator of which joints are controlled in an antagonistic manner similar to human slkeleto-muscular system.We used the muscle-like actuator called ANLES that has a non-linear elasticity similar to a voluntary muscle. The research was proceeded in parallel with three research items; the developement of 2DOF shoulder joint, the development of 2DOF elbow joint and the development of 3DOF wrist joint. Design, assembly and the developement of the control system were completed in all of the items and their performance in tems of the stiffness and angle control were confirmed by experiments.
