摘要

Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to propose a new methodological framework within which a compliant robotic joint can be studied. Design/methodology/approach - A new method is presented for detecting the direction of the robotic joint rotation when subjected to an external collision force. Findings - The behaviour of the silicone rubber shows strong non-linearity, therefore, the sensor-elements cannot be used for accurate measurements. Originality/value - A new type of safe robotic mechanisms with an internal measuring system is proposed in this paper.
