Description

Seshagopalan Muralidharan and co-authors calm shaking in a soft robot neck in a 2025 paper, per its head. The neck serves HARU, a social robot for human chats. Cable driven soft necks move with life like ease, but they wobble under off center loads.

Side sway is not driven at all, so it rings the most. Their control tugs driven cables in quick bursts timed to sway sensor reads. That cross trick damps the free axis with no new parts, and keeps the neck soft. A standard sharp control served as the match test. Calm necks make social robots less odd to talk to.
