A Theorem on the Manipulability of Redundant Serial Kinematic Chains
—The concept of ‘manipulability’ is particularly important to characterize the ability of a serial kinematic chain – artificial manipulator or natural limb – to move quic...

Kinematic Modelling of Wheeled Mobile Manipulators
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...

The Isotropic Decoupling of the Direct Kinematics of Parallel Manipulators under Sensor Redundancy
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 for bi-criteria kinematic control of redundant manipulators
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...

General Kinematic Synthesis Method for a Discretely Actuated Robotic Manipulator (D-ARM)
— 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...
