This paper is concerned with how to utilize kinematic redundancy to reconstruct the inverse kinematic solution which is not attainable due to hardware limitations. By analyzing the error due to hardware limitations, we are to show that the recoverability of limitation reduces to the solvability of a reconstruction equation under the feasibility condition. It will be next shown that the reconstruction equation is solvable if the configuration is not a joint-limit singularity. The reconstruction method will be proposed based on the geometrical analysis of recoverability of hardware limitations. The method has the feature that no task motion error is induced by the hardware limitations while minimizing a possible null motion error, under the recoverability assumed.

This paper deals with the kinematic and dynamic modeling of a 3 degree-of-freedom redundantly actuated mobile robot for the purpose of analysis and control. Each wheel is driven by two motors for steering and driving. Therefore, the system becomes force-redundant since the number of input variable is greater than the number of output variable. The kinematic and dynamic models in terms of three independent joint variables are derived. Also, a load distribution method to determine the input loads is introduced. Finally we demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed algorithms through simulation.

In this paper, we have treated the modeling and development of three degree of freedom parallel manipulator for micromotion based on the Stewart platform type parallel structure. the kinematic modeling was derived from the relation between base coordinate and platform anr the dynamic modeling was from the method of Kinematic Influence Coefficients(KIC) and transferring of the generalized coordinates. Using this method, we presented the method to choose the actuator and joint by investigating the actuating forces needed when the manipulator moves along the given trajectory. In the end, the prototype manipulator was developmented and evaluated.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate performance reliability of stroke patients using kinematic analysis. Methods: A protocol to evaluate performance reliability was performed for three tasks on 20 stroke patients and 10 normal people. The tasks include hand to head (HH) task, hand to mouth (HM) task, and hand to target (HT) task. Results: The affected arms showed smaller joint angle, slower peak velocity, longer time to peak velocity for task performances than control group. Also, slower peak velocity and longer movement time for task performance in unaffected arm of stroke patients were obtained compared with the control group. Conclusion: Kinematic analysis is very useful quantitative tool to provide understanding on upper extremity function of stroke patients.

In this study, we try to coincide virtual robot system in an OLP(off-line programming) with actual robot system even though kinematic differences between them are made. The virtual robot in the OLP may be modeled according to kinematics of the actual robot system. However, it is a complicated problem to find exactly all kinematic parameters of actual robot and environment. In this paper, an automated calibration method is proposed In order to find some kinematical parameters which are necessary for the modeling of a robot and environment in the OLP. It is applicable to SCARA robot for assembly task. In this method, a well-marked worktable of environment Is regarded as reference coordinate frame. The robot detects some marks on the worktable through sensors attached to the end-effector. The necessary parameters are calculated from the data of the robot joint variables when the robot detects the mark. The model in the OLP is modified by the parameters.

This paper suggests a measure constraint locus for characterization of the performance of a subtask for a redundant robot. The measure constraint locus are the loci of points satisfying the necessary constraint for optimality of measure in the joint configuration space. To uniquely obtain an inverse kinematic solution, one must consider both measure constraint locus and self-motion manifolds which are set of homogeneous solutions. Using measure constraint locus for maniqulability measure, the invertible workspace without singularities and the topological property of the configuration space for linding equilibrium configurations are analyzed. We discuss some limitations based on the topological arguments of measure constraint locus, of the inverse kinematic algorithm for a cyclic task. And the inverse kinematic algorithm using global maxima on self-motion manifolds is proposed and its property is studied.

In this paper, an inverse kinematics of redundant manipulators is proposed. Optimality-constraint based inverse kinematic algorithms have some problems because those algorithms are based on necessary conditions for optimality. Among the problems, switching from a maximum value to a minimum value may occur and make an inverse kinematic solution unstable while performing a given task. An inverse kinematic solution for protecting from the switchings is suggested. By sufficient conditions for optimality, the configuration space is defined as a set of regions, potentially good configuration region and potentially bad configuration region. Inverse kinematics solution within potentially good configuration region can provide joint trajectories without both singularities and switchings. Through a simulation of tracing a circle, we show the effectiveness of this inverse kinematics.

This paper proposes a method that can generate a smooth trajectory from the discontinuous trajectory in kinematic, dynamic, and task-space trajectory constraints. The problem is defined as the minimization of kinetic energy, and then the simulation is performed by using the MATLAB. Kinematic and inverse kinematic equations are derived for the simulation of the 6-DOF robotic arm. The simulation results showed that the trajectory of each joint is generated while satisfying the constraints without any discontinuity. There are small errors in the Cartesian trajectory, but unnecessary deceleration and acceleration can be eliminated. In addition, it is possible to quickly switch between the robotic tasks by applying the proposed method.

The purpose of this study is to propose appropriate model for 3 staged Didimsae movement to Jajinmori rhythm and to provide information for ideal foot step movements. For the locational change of body center, the height of body center is lowered at the moment of forward step and during forward intersection of the feet, forward direction linear motion is converted to vertical motion to maintain stability. Speed change of body center reduces flow of body on step forward moment and controls rapid forward movement for stabled movement and position when preventing fast forward horizontal direction movement of centroid speed while knee joint and foot joint are vertically risen for heel bone contacts the ground. For angle changes of joints, in order to prevent hyperextension of lower leg, hip joint is extended and knee joint is curved to secure stability of movement for smooth curves and extension. When centroid of foot joint is moved from top of the feet to whole foot sole and when left foot makes dorsal curve, stabled movement is accomplished.
