Modeling, Design, and Construction of a Planar Cable-Driven Parallel Robot

This project focuses on the design and implementation of a three degrees of freedom (3-DoF) industrial planar parallel robot actuated by cables. The initiative originates from the GURA research group at the Salesian Polytechnic University, in collaboration with the Robotics and Automation group at the Polytechnic University of Madrid (UPM). The fundamental purpose is to create an advanced robotic platform that allows for the investigation and development of new alternatives in critical areas such as motion control, velocity control, and trajectory planning. The initial methodology includes an exhaustive bibliographic review to establish the state-of-the-art in parallel robot structures and their technological components. Subsequently, the scientific method and software modeling will be applied to validate the projected hypotheses regarding the robot's functionality. This collaborative effort aims to enhance institutional research capabilities in modern robotics.<br/><br/><b>Goal</b>: <br/>The main objective is to design and implement a three degrees of freedom (3-DoF) planar cable-actuated parallel robot.
