Open Tentacle

Open Tentacle is an open source robotics project for the design and implementation of a capable but affordable tentacle / continuum robot systems

Goals

Continuum Robots

  • Implement / Develop solutions that will allow using jointless continuum limbs for grasping/arm operations and use in locomotion such as walking and climbing

  • Explore jointless continummn design solutions that do not require geared joints

  • Intragrate camera based control solutions that do not require specialized control hardware such as teach pendants or control gloves

Perhaps along the line of hand/joint tracking such as in MediaPipe

  • Explore tendon base haptic feedback wearables for better control feedback

Haptic Technology

ROS

  • Potentually develop plug and play wrappers around the software systems

Versions (Both Built and Design versions)
