Robot kinematics

(of mechanical system) number of independent parameters that define its configuration; number of parameters that determine the state of a physical system and is important to the analysis of systems of bodies

computing motion to reach a desired position

industrial robot whose three principal axes of control are linear and are at right angles to each other

freedom of movement of a rigid body in three-dimensional space

assembly of rigid bodies connected by joints to provide constrained motion that is the mathematical model for a mechanical system

Robot with rotary joints

device for manipulating an end effector

robotics problem

subfield of robotics dealing with constructing robots from highly compliant materials

planar mechanism designed to simulate the gait of legged animals

computing the position of a robot's end-effector from specified joint parameters

shortest path with bounded turning radius

study of the motion of kinematic chains that form the structure of robotic systems
