我们提出了一种猫尾巴装置，可以指示意图和情感，进行角色扮演等自我表达，并延伸人体。弦驱动可以像动物一样移动尾部松紧带，由于其重量轻，适合佩戴设备。然而，细长的东西在用绳子驱动时会扭曲，并且不能按预期移动尾巴。为了解决这个问题，我们在尾芯（由棉袋制成）上套上一根网管，网管柔软但不易扭曲。通过这种机制，我们实现了重量轻、呈猫尾状S形的可穿戴机器人。
We propose a cat tail device that can indicate intentions and emotions, do self-expressions such as cosplay, and extend human body. String drive can move the tail elastic like an animal, and suitable for wearing device due to it’s lightness. However, long and narrow things twist when driven by string, and cannot move the tail as expected. To resolve this problem, we cover tail core (made by cotton bag) with a mesh tube which is flexible but uneasily to twist. By this mechanism, we realized wearable robot which is light and make S-shape like a cat tail.
