Tendon-driven Robot Design

Tendon-Driven Robot Design is a robot morphology method in which mechanical actuation is transmitted through flexible cables or artificial tendons anchored to skeletal structures, distinguished from rigid-link transmission systems by enabling remote placement of actuators and biomimetic compliance in limb dynamics.
