| dc.description.abstract | This paper discusses three main problems associated with the control of the motion of a mechanical arm.
1) Transformation between different coordinate systems used to describe the state of the arm.
2) Calculation of detailed trajectories for the arm to follow when moving from point A to B.
3) Calculation of the forces that must be applied to the joints of the arm to make it move along a specified path.
Each of the above problems is amenable to exact solution, however, the resulting equations are, in general, to complex to be used in a real time application. Throughout this paper we investigate methods for getting approximate solutions to these equations. | en |
