In this paper, we present an efficient method based on geometric algebra for computing the solutions to the inverse kinematics problem (IKP) of the 6R robot manipulators with offset wrist. Due to the fact that there exist some difficulties to solve the inverse kinematics problem when the kinematics equations are complex, highly nonlinear, coupled and multiple solutions in terms of these robot manipulators stated mathematically, we apply the theory of Geometric Algebra to the kinematic modeling of 6R robot manipulators simply and generate closed-form kinematics equations, reformulate the problem as a generalized eigenvalue problem with symbolic elimination technique, and then yield 16 solutions. Finally, a spray painting robot, which conforms to the type of robot manipulators, is used as an example of implementation for the effectiveness and real-time of this method. The experimental results show that this method has a large advantage over the classical methods on geometric intuition, computation and real-time, and can be directly extended to all serial robot manipulators and completely automatized, which provides a new tool on the analysis and application of general robot manipulators.

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.

Abstract A semi-analytical method and a computer program are developed for inverse kinematics solution of a class of robotic manipulators, in which four joint variables are contained in wrist point equations. For this case, it becomes possible to express all the joint variables in terms of a joint variable, and this reduces the inverse kinematics problem to solving a nonlinear equation in terms of that joint variable. The solution can be obtained by iterative methods and the remaining joint variables can easily be computed by using the solved joint variable. Since the method is manipulator dependent, the equations will be different for kinematically different classes of manipulators, and should be derived analytically. A significant benefit of the method is that, the singular configurations and the multiple solutions indicated by sign ambiguities can be determined while deriving the inverse kinematic expressions. The developed method is applied to a six-revolute-joint industrial robot, FANUC Arc Mate Sr.

The inverse kinematic analysis of the general 6R serial robot has been a very significant and important problem in the theory of the spatial mechanisms. 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 a one-dimension searching algorithm. All the real solutions to inverse kinematics problems of the general 6R serial robot or forward kinematics problems of the general 7R single-loop mechanism can be obtained. 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; and (2) compared with the algebraic method, it has evidently reduced the difficulty of deducing formulas.

A simple inverse kinematics procedure is proposed for a seven degree of freedom model of the human arm. Two schemes are used to provide an additional constraint leading to closed-form analytical equations with an upper bound of two or four solutions, Multiple solutions can be evaluated on the basis of their proximity from the rest angles or the previous configuration of the arm. Empirical results demonstrate that the procedure is well suited for real-time applications.

In this paper, the context of relative kinematic modeling, and the analysis of symmetric dual four-bar mechanism industrial robot are introduced. For such mechanism, its designation of the representative algorithm, and its simplification, simulation, verification and alternately analysis in Forward Kinematics Problems (FKP) and Inverse Kinematics Problem (IKP) were studied. Via such method, it’s possible to efficiently analyze and solve the both of FKP and IKP of symmetric dual planar four-bar mechanism. Thus this method can be applied for the design, simulation and verification for the robot with similar structure.

The inverse kinematics of serial robots is a central problem in the automatic control of robot manipulators. The aim of this paper is to obtain a computational algorithm to compute the inverse kinematics problem of a spatial serial robot. We use a series of algebraic and numeric transformations to reduce the problem to a univariate polynomial equation. The results can be directly applied to symbolic calculations and decreased considerably the calculation time.
