About
Shota Mori’s research centers on the design and control of tendon-driven robotic manipulators, with a particular focus on achieving both safety and versatility for operation in human environments. His major contributions lie in developing simple yet effective tension distribution methods for multi-tendon robotic arms. Specifically, Mori proposed a novel approach to convert workspace commands into tendon tensions for a two-joint arm actuated by three pairs of six tendons, addressing the critical challenge of maintaining tension within safe limits while ensuring smooth, biologically inspired motion. His work on tension distribution considering tension limits has provided a foundational framework for controlling tendon-based manipulators equipped with nonlinear springs, enhancing their reliability and adaptability. Although his most-cited papers each hold 2 citations, they represent early, focused steps toward safer human-robot interaction. Mori’s research is notable for its emphasis on simplicity and practicality, offering a clear pathway for implementing tendon-driven systems in real-world applications. His contributions are particularly valuable for students and researchers interested in bio-inspired robotics, soft actuation, and the control of flexible, tendon-based mechanisms.
