Description

Book Synopsis
Introduces the subject of robot manipulators and describes a forward and reverse analysis for serial robot arms. Focuses on closed form solution techniques applied to a broad range of manipulator geometries. Case studies show how the techniques are used in real engineering applications.

Trade Review
'The book meets the need for a thorough analysis of the structure and mobility of serial manipulators and will be useful to both graduate students and engineers working in the field of robotics.' Engineering Designer
