Welcome

The JMR publishes archival research contributions to the fundamental theory, algorithms, design, manufacture and experimental validation for mechanisms and robots. This website is dedicated to sharing highlights of the latest groundbreaking research into mechanisms and robotics theory, design and applications featured in our journal.

Our authors share additional insights into their work as well as photos and videos that further illuminate their research. We hope these deepen your interest in the topics we cover and encourage you to visit our online journal for more complete coverage of these areas. Visit us often for these and other exciting topics and for videos featuring the latest research in mechanisms and robotics or sign up for updates! - Venkat Krovi, Editor
