A Weight-Bearing Highly Articulated Robotic Arm
A robotic arm capable of up to 100 different articulations (turns) despite being made of rigid material. Problem: There is an increasing need for highly articulated robotic arms (also known as octopus’ arms, elephant trunk, snake-like robots) with cross-disciplinary applications. However, there are still no highly articulated robots (>10...

High performance cageless bearings with minimal frictional loss
The invention is a cageless bearing with rolling separator elements. The design will reduce friction by ensuring the rolling elements are only ever in pure rolling, as opposed to sliding contact which involves higher frictional losses. Additionally, these elements are not in sliding contact with the inner race. Categories for applications include portable...
