This note
introduces fundamental topics in robotics science emphasizing in its mechanical
dynamics. Topics covered includes: Spatial Descriptions and Transformations,
Manipulator Kinematics, Jacobians, Trajectory Generation, Manipulator-Mechanism
Design, Introduction to Control of Manipulators.
An intelligent industrial robot is a remarkably useful
combination of a manipulator, sensors and controls. This PDF covers the
following topics related to Industrial Robotics : Introduction, Automation and
Robotics, Robot Characteristics, Robot Control Strategies, Artificial Neural
Networks, Robot Arm Kinematics, Manipulator Arm Kinematic Equations.
