A fundamental tool in robot kinematics is the kinematics equations of the kinematic chains that form the robot. These non-linear equations are used to map the joint parameters to the configuration of the robot system. Kinematics equations are also used in biomechanics of the skeleton and computer animation of articulated characters.
Kinematic models are essential for controlling the movements of robots. Robotics engineers use forward kinematics to calculate the positions and orientations of a robot's end-effector, given specific joint angles, and inverse kinematics to determine the joint movements necessary for a desired end-effector position. These calculations allow for ...
The kinematics equations of the robot are used in robotics, computer games, and animation. The reverse process, that computes the joint parameters that achieve a specified position of the end-effector, is known as inverse kinematics. Forward vs Backwards Kinematics
A three-wheeled differentially steered robot. A differential wheeled robot is a mobile robot whose movement is based on two separately driven wheels placed on either side of the robot body. It can thus change its direction by varying the relative rate of rotation of its wheels and hence does not require an additional steering motion.

The system of six joint axes S i and five common normal lines A i,i+1 form the kinematic skeleton of the typical six degree-of-freedom serial robot. Denavit and Hartenberg introduced the convention that z-coordinate axes are assigned to the joint axes S i and x-coordinate axes are assigned to the common normals A i , i +1 .
The kinematics equations for a parallel chain, or parallel robot, formed by an end-effector supported by multiple serial chains are obtained from the kinematics equations of each of the supporting serial chains. Suppose that m serial chains support the end-effector, then the transformation from the base to the end-effector is defined by m ...
Kinematics is a subfield of physics and mathematics, developed in classical mechanics, ... Mechanisms and robots are examples of kinematic chains.
