New Sensor Device to Accurately Measure Cable Tension in Cable-Driven Parallel Robots.
Article in Sensors (Basel, Switzerland), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Cable-driven parallel robots are a special type of robot in which an end-effector is attached to a fixed frame by means of several cables. The position and orientation of the end-effector can be controlled by controlling the length of the cables. These robots present a wide range of advantages, and the control algorithms required have greater complexity than those in traditional serial robots. Measuring the cable tension is an important task in this type of robot as many control algorithms rely on this information. There are several well-known approaches to measure cable tension in cable robots, where a trade-off between complexity and accuracy is observed. This work presents a new device based on strain gauges to measure cable tension specially designed to be applied in cable-driven parallel robots. This device can be easily mounted on the cable near the fixed frame, allowing the cable length and orientation to change freely, while the measure is taken before the cable passes through the guiding pulleys for improved accuracy. The results obtained from the device show a strong repeatability and linearity of the measures.
