Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This book is intended to provide an introduction to robotics with a special emphasis on mathematically modelling the movements of robot manipulators. It is suitable for a senior level undergratuate or a beginning year graduate level course in robotics. This book is primarily aimed at how robots move things around in an industrial automation environment rather than the more popularized 'build your own robot' type of book.
It is mathematically rigorous and the student should have some understanding of matrix manipulation, vectors, and knowledge of the trigonometric functions. It would be suitable for courses in industrial engineering, computer automation, and other areas where robot motion is used.
The book includes a CD with interactive visualization software using VRML (a VRML bho is included on the disk), and specialized computational software for robotics. This text is one of the first to use these computer based visualization routines for describing robotic motion.

Robot Modeling and Kinematics teaches the fundamental topics of robotics, using cutting-edge visualization software and computer tools to illustrate topics andprovide a comprehensive process of teaching and learning. The book provides an introduction to robotics with an emphasis on the study of robotic arms, their mathematical description, and the equations describing their motion. It teaches how to model robotic arms efficiently and analyze their kinematics. The kinematics of robot manipulators is also presented beginning with the use of simple robot mechanisms and progressing to the most complex robot manipulator structures.While mathematically rigorous, the book's focus is on ease of understanding of the concepts with interactive animated computer graphics illustrations and modeling software that allow clear understanding of the material covered in the book. All necessary computations are concisely explained and software is provided that greatly eases the computational burden normally associated with robotics.Written for use in a robotics course or as a professional reference, Robot Modeling and Kinematics is an essential resource that provides a thorough understanding of the topics of modeling and kinematics.
