Multifilament Artificial Muscles to Mimic the Human Neck

Suzumori Endo Lab, Tokyo Institute of Technology has developed the aritificial neck of musculoskeletal robot driven by multifilament artificial muscles.
The main structures of the human neck anatomy in terms of bones, ligaments and muscles are identified.
We tried to mimic each of these structures.
