2. Robotic arm - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robotic_arm

   A robotic arm is a type of mechanical arm, usually programmable, with similar functions to a human arm; the arm may be the sum total of the mechanism or may be part of a more complex robot. The links of such a manipulator are connected by joints allowing either rotational motion (such as in an articulated robot ) or translational (linear ...

3. Manipulator (device) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manipulator_(device)

   In robotics, a manipulator is a device used to manipulate materials without direct physical contact by the operator. The applications were originally for dealing with radioactive or biohazardous materials, using robotic arms , or they were used in inaccessible places.

4. Mobile manipulator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_manipulator

   Mobile Manipulator systems; mobile platform, robot manipulator, vision and tooling. A mobile robotic system combines the mobility offered by a mobile platform and dexterity offered by the manipulator. The mobile platform offers an extended workspace to the manipulator and more degrees of freedom to operate in. However, the operation of such a ...

5. Remote manipulator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remote_manipulator

   Manipulator arms inside the Hot Bay of the Engine Maintenance Assembly & Disassembly Facility, in Area 25 of the Nevada Test Site.. A remote manipulator, also known as a telefactor, telemanipulator, or waldo (after the 1942 short story "Waldo" by Robert A. Heinlein which features a man who invents and uses such devices), [1] is a device which, through electronic, hydraulic, or mechanical ...

6. Industrial robot - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industrial_robot

   Articulated robots [5] are the most common industrial robots. [6] They look like a human arm, which is why they are also called robotic arm or manipulator arm. [7] Their articulations with several degrees of freedom allow the articulated arms a wide range of movements.

7. Serial manipulator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serial_manipulator

   The position and orientation of a robot's end effector are derived from the joint positions by means of a geometric model of the robot arm. For serial robots, the mapping from joint positions to end-effector pose is easy, the inverse mapping is more difficult. Therefore, most industrial robots have special designs that reduce the complexity of ...

   The PUMA (Programmable Universal Machine for Assembly, or Programmable Universal Manipulation Arm) is an industrial robotic arm developed by Victor Scheinman at pioneering robot company Unimation. Initially developed by Unimation for General Motors , the PUMA was based on earlier designs Scheinman invented while at Stanford University based on ...
