—The concept of ‘manipulability’ is particularly important to characterize the ability of a serial kinematic chain – artificial manipulator or natural limb – to move quic...
We propose a systematic modelling of the nonholonomic mobile manipulators built from a robotic arm mounted on a wheeled mobile platform. It extends the fundamental notions of nonh...
Using redundant sensors, the direct kinematics of general parallel manipulators is here decoupled and reduced to an orientation problem only. The accuracy of the decoupling depend...
A dual neural network is presented for the bi-criteria kinematic control of redundant manipulators. To diminish the discontinuity of minimum infinity-norm solutions, the kinematicc...
— A “Discretely Actuated Robotic Manipulator”, or “D-ARM”, is any member of a class of robotic manipulators powered by actuators that have only discrete positional stable...
