Aim of this paper is to show the connection between the theory of expansions in non-integer bases and discrete control systems. This idea is supported by an example of application, in the framework of robotics. We show how a model of multi-phalanx self-similar robot hand may be studied by means of results and techniques coming from non-standard numeration systems and related tools, like Iterated Function Systems (IFS) and, more generally, fractal geometry.

Abstract
Aim of this paper is to show the connection between the theory of expansions in non-integer bases and discrete control systems. This idea is supported by an example of application, in the framework of robotics. We show how a model of multi-phalanx self-similar robot hand may be studied by means of results and techniques coming from non-standard numeration systems and related tools, like Iterated Function Systems (IFS) and, more generally, fractal geometry.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
