Abstract:In this paper the trajectory planning problem is solved for a 2PRR parallel manipulator which works in cooperation with a 1 degree-of-freedom (dof) platform. The whole kinematic chain is considered as a redundant 3-dof manipulator, and an algorithm is presented to solve the redundancy by using the joint velocities in the null space of the jacobian matrix. The internal motion of the assisted manipulator allows globally optimize the condition number of the jacobian matrix during the accomplishment of a desired t… Show more
