A Motion decoupled Aerial Robotic Manipulator for Better Inspection
Rui Peng,Xianda Chen,Peng Lu,Rui Peng,Xianda Chen,Peng Lu
For conventional aerial manipulators, the robotic arm is rigidly attached to the quadrotor. Consequently, the maneuver of the quadrotor will affect the motion of the robotic arm when it is used for tasks such as inspection. In this paper, we propose a novel aerial manipulator with a self-locking gimbal system which can switch between motion coupled and decoupled mode. Furthermore, a dynamic gravit...
