A Simple Method for Inverse Kinematic Analysis of the General 6R Serial Robot

摘要

Because the solution to inverse kinematics problem of the general 5R serial robot is unique and its assembly condition has been derived, a simple effective method for inverse kinematics problem of general 6R serial robot or forward kinematics problem of general 7R single-loop mechanism is presented based on one-dimension searching algorithm. The new method has the following features: (1) Using one-dimension searching algorithm, all the real inverse kinematic solutions are obtained and it has higher computing efficiency; (2) Compared with algebraic method, it has evidently reduced the difficulty of deducing formulas. The principle of the new method can be generalized to kinematic analysis of parallel mechanisms.
