Abstract

A new algorithm for representing the kinematic problem of robot arms is presented, and its advantages discused. It is shown that manipulator links and joints can be described using generalised cascaded 'robot joint descriptors'. Such a description provides a theoretical basis for the development of a kinematic controller applicable to most manipulator geometries.
