772 Citations | From these considerations, the octopus emerges as a good model for embodied intelligence and for soft robotics. |
61 Citations | The octopus's generalist hunting lifestyle and the structure of their arms suggest that these animals have no need to designate specific arms for specific tasks. |
772 Citations | The octopus arms provide it with both locomotion and grasping capabilities, thanks to the fact that their stiffness can change over a wide range and can be controlled through combined contractions of the muscles. |
13 Nov 2009 13 Citations | This work illustrates new tools and methods for an in vivo and direct, but non-invasive, measurement of an octopus arm mechanical properties. |
| Our modeling suggests that the octopus arm biomechanics may allow independent control of kinematics and resistance to perturbation during arm extension movements. | |
14 May 2012 20 Citations | Simulated results for single and multiple dynamic continuum arms show the controller is capable of producing motions similar to that of octopus. |
01 Jan 2009 28 Citations | Contraction tests on prototypes of the contracting units show a very good similarity with a theoretical model and support the starting hypothesis on the possibility of building a robotic octopus-like arm based on an artificial muscular hydrostat. |
27 May 2005 | The arrangement and dynamic operation of muscles and connective tissue observed in the arms of a variety of octopus species motivate the underlying design approach for our soft manipulators. |

What is the state of the art for robot arms?4 answersThe state of the art for robot arms can be categorized into different classes based on price, performance, and suitability for research on manipulation. There are cheap educational arms, low price industrial arms, research-oriented arms, and modular lightweight arms. Each class has its own functional capacities and capabilities. Additionally, there is a proposal for a novel quasi-direct drive (QDD) robot arm that offers extraordinary compliance, backdrivability, and force-transparency. This arm is designed to have good compliance and force control performance, making it suitable for contact-rich human-robot-environment interactions. It is also simpler, lighter, and can be installed on mobile platforms to increase its overall workspace. Furthermore, there is a utility model for a robot arm that is competent for carrying workpieces in automatic production lines, improving production efficiency and providing real-time monitoring of the working process.
