Abstract

Forward and inverse kinematics operations are important in the operational space control of mechanical manipulators. In case of a parallel manipulator, the forward kinematics function relates the joint variables of the active joints to the position of end-effector. This paper finds analytically forward kinematics function by exploiting the position-closure property. Using the proposed function along with the analytical Jacobian presented in the literature, the forward and the inverse kinematics blocks are formulated for a prospective operational space control scheme. Finally, an example is presented for a 3-RPR robot.
