Designed as self-sustaining oscillating systems, resonant robotic systems use the natural modes of oscillation of electromechanical modules for their movements. Manipulator systems built on resonant principles have demonstrated record-breaking characteristics in performance. Resonant Robotic Systems summarizes the latest research on and development of these systems. For the reader’s convenience, a presentation of design concepts is followed by solutions to new dynamical and control problems. The book is intended for designers, researchers and graduate students.
