Abstract

Collaborative Robots or Cobots are passively assisted devices that are intended to work directly with human operators. We describe a Resizable Cobot that specially designed to expand or retract itself while moving along a specified path. In this paper, we propose and implement a 4-DOF path planning using a path length parameter. The computer simulation using Cobot Kinematic and the experiment result of the Resizable Cobot are provided.
