Summary:This article discusses the creation of a python module for object-oriented modeling and control design of flexible robots using the transfer matrix method (TMM). The authors overcame several theoretical hurdles to apply the TMM to practical flexible robots and have experimentally validated the python module's modeling capabilities.
