Soft Robotics: Thinking about Cable Control / Systems

Slides From Kari Love’s Class 1 Lecture 

Optional more info on cables:

• Academic deep dig on cable systems in traditional robotics. Beginning explains in-detail concerns, and end covers how to handle steel cable https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwjvt-rm-d7RAhWC3YMKHZ9gDVQQtwIIGjAA&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DjKZIvseA1Nk&usg=AFQjCNECmgiaZy3STMTR1idePPJMlLMtSA&sig2=BhrTCdgIfD6BGTT7CSiW2A&bvm=bv.145063293,d.eWE
