Abstract

Summary

This paper describes a new approach to obtaining a differential relationship of a robot manipulator via the Theoretical Kinematics method which may expedite computational efforts. The method involves a successive transformation of velocities from the end-effector to the base of the manipulator, link by link, using the relationship of moving coordinate systems. The equations obtained are written in the form suitable for programming on a digital computer. Furthermore, this paper also discusses the speed control model for general robot manipulators and together presents the Inverse Jacobian of cases of underdetermined and overdetermined of joint-controlled variables.
