1. A robotic manipulator, comprising:
- a base;
a first segment;
a first joint operatively coupling the base and the first segment, wherein the first joint is configured to rotate the first segment about at least two axes of rotation with respect to the base;
a second segment; and
a second joint operatively coupling the first segment and the second segment, wherein the second joint is configured to rotate the second segment about at least one axis of rotation with respect to the first segment;
wherein at least one of the first segment or the second segment has a curved shape.
