  2. Robotics engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robotics_engineering

    Robotics engineering is a branch of engineering that focuses on the conception, design, manufacturing, and operation of robots. It involves a multidisciplinary approach, drawing primarily from mechanical , electrical , software , and artificial intelligence (AI) engineering .

  3. Robot kinematics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robot_kinematics

    The robot Jacobian results in a set of linear equations that relate the joint rates to the six-vector formed from the angular and linear velocity of the end-effector, known as a twist. Specifying the joint rates yields the end-effector twist directly. The inverse velocity problem seeks the joint rates that provide a specified end-effector twist.

  4. Joint application design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joint_application_design

    Joint application design is a term originally used to describe a software development process pioneered and deployed during the mid-1970s by the New York Telephone Company's Systems Development Center under the direction of Dan Gielan. Following a series of implementations of this methodology, Gielan lectured extensively in various forums on ...

  5. Linkage (mechanical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linkage_(mechanical)

    An example of a simple open chain is a serial robot manipulator. These robotic systems are constructed from a series of links connected by six one degree-of-freedom revolute or prismatic joints, so the system has six degrees of freedom. An example of a simple closed chain is the RSSR (revolute-spherical-spherical-revolute) spatial four-bar linkage.

  6. Outline of robotics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_of_robotics

    Robotics is a branch of mechanical engineering, electrical engineering and computer science that deals with the design, construction, operation, and application of robots, as well as computer systems for their control, sensory feedback, and information processing. These technologies deal with automated machines that can take the place of humans ...

  7. Line representations in robotics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_representations_in...

    Line representations in robotics are used for the following: They model joint axes: a revolute joint makes any connected rigid body rotate about the line of its axis; a prismatic joint makes the connected rigid body translate along its axis line. They model edges of the polyhedral objects used in many task planners or sensor processing modules.

  8. SCARA - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SCARA

    The SCARA is a type of industrial robot. The acronym stands for selective compliance assembly robot arm [1] or selective compliance articulated robot arm. [2] By virtue of the SCARA's parallel-axis joint layout, the arm is slightly compliant in the X-Y direction but rigid in the Z direction, hence the term selective compliance. This is ...

  9. Robotics middleware - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robotics_middleware

    Robotics middleware is middleware to be used in complex robot control software systems. "...robotic middleware is designed to manage the complexity and heterogeneity of the hardware and applications, promote the integration of new technologies, simplify software design, hide the complexity of low-level communication and the sensor heterogeneity of the sensors, improve software quality, reuse ...
