Kinematics Analysis and Parameter Optimization of a Novel 3T1R Parallel Robot Mechanism
Based on the design theory of position and orientation characteristic set, a kind of parallel robot mechanism is proposed, whose moving platform can realize three translations and one rotation. According to the orientation characteristic equation, the topological structure of the mechanism is analyzed, and the kinematics equation model is established ...

Development of an anthropomorphic robot finger : mechanical and kinematic aspects
In this work, we report on the mechanical design and development, the kinematic analysis, and the simulation of a new dexterous robot finger. The robot finger design is based on that of the human counterpart in size, mechanical structure, and range of motion, and exhibits four distinct joint motions (one abduction/adduction or yaw motion, and three ...
