Abstract
In this paper, we consider the modeling of robotic continuous “continuum” two-dimensional surfaces. We discuss the fundamental differences between such robot surfaces and traditional rigid link and continuum robots. We then introduce new kinematic models for continuum robotic surfaces. We compare the kinematic models to physical continuum surfaces and validate their performance.
