About this paper

Haitham El-Hussieny

The authors present a MuJoCo simulator that models a quadrotor and tendon-driven continuum arm as a coupled system. Its 12-link arm uses a tension-allocation map that produces direction-independent commanded bending moments, while its controller treats arm motion as a disturbance. In a 36-second simulated mission, nominal gains yield 3.14 cm RMS position error, but no prototype validates the model.
