Recent advances and applications of tethered robotic systems

Ali Ajwad, Syed; Iqbal, Jamshed

Abstract

With the advancement in technology, the field of robotics has evolved differently in multiple domains. For use in industries huge and autonomous robotic systems are developed. On the other hand, the increased demand of robotics in rescues, space and warfare has urged the development of compact and sophisticated systems. That’s where the concept of tethered robot arises. Several advantages of tethered system are realized: a) robot size decreases significantly b) enables it to maneuver in narrow spaces c) have a continuous power supply d) provides reliable communication link. This paper presents state-of-the-art comprehensive review of tethered systems and associated challenges. This research work is anticipated to assist researchers in developing the advanced tethered robots by doing the analysis of existing systems.
