Abstract

In this study, the dynamic model of a tentacle robot in two-dimensional space will be presented. We shall attempt to achieve the discretization of this type of robot, and then, by applying a nonlinear observer, the driving control system of the hyper redundant arm will be achieved. Some results obtained by simulating the robot’s motion will be presented and compared.
