Kinematic and Dynamic Synthesis of Geared Robotic Mechanisms [PDF]
Journal of Mechanical Design, 1993 This paper describes a methodology for the design of geared robotic mechanisms. It is shown that certain gear-coupled manipulators can be designed to possess kinematic isotropy property at a given end-effector position. For these gear-coupled manipulators, the train values can be treated as a product of two-stage gear reductions.
