Abstract
Soft continuum robots have gained significant attention in various applications due to their inherent compliance and adaptability to complex environments. In this paper, a Helix-based Cable-Driven Soft continuum Robot (HCDSR) is proposed with the corresponding modeling established and experimental validation conducted. The proposed robot features a helix-based structure that enables direct 3D printing manufacturing as a monolithic unit, substantially reducing assembly requirements and improving structural consistency. The constant curvature assumption-based kinematic model is applied to characterize the robot’s deformation behavior, which has the potential to serve as an effective feedforward control law to enhance dynamic performance. Experimental investigations demonstrate that the constant curvature assumption remains valid within a specified curvature range, confirming its applicability for both modeling and control purposes. The results validate the effectiveness of the proposed design approach and modeling framework, providing a foundation for practical implementation of helix-based soft continuum robots in various applications.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
