From: A dexterous and compliant aerial continuum manipulator for cluttered and constrained environments
The AET showcases its versatility by adeptly winding a diverse array of objects, leveraging its unique whole-body manipulation capability. Furthermore, AET exhibits adaptability by adjusting the states of its arm to conform to the contours of a tube, thereby enabling it to seamlessly navigate through the tube’s confines. a A level pillar winding. b A vertical pillar winding. c A bench winding. d AET navigates through the L-shaped tube. e AET navigates through the C-shaped tube. f AET navigates through the S-shaped tube.
