Robot Inverse Kinematics

Kine­mat­ics of robots is a branch of mechan­ics that con­cen­trates on the motion of objects with­out ref­er­ence to forces that cause move­ment. Robot kine­mat­ics involves apply­ing geom­e­try to the varies degrees of free­dom in the kine­mat­ic chains form­ing the struc­ture of robot­ic sys­tems. Kine­mat­ics of robots is key because it plans and con­trols move­ment of robots, along with com­put­ing actu­a­tor forces and torques. Non-lin­ear equa­tions are used to lay­out joint para­me­ters to con­fig­ure the robot sys­tem. Kine­mat­ic equa­tions are para­mount to the kine­mat­ics of robots.

Robot inverse kine­mat­ics is the process of achiev­ing the spe­cif­ic end effec­tor posi­tion desired for a robot by com­put­ing the joint para­me­ters. In oth­er words you know what you want the end effec­tor to pre­form, but you need to fig­ure out the joint angles required to accom­plish it. For instance, you want your inverse kine­mat­ics robot to grab a box, so you com­pute the angles for each joint in order for the robot to com­plete your task. Robot inverse kine­mat­ics is high­ly use­ful and effec­tive, but can be very com­pli­cat­ed since there may be no solu­tions or mul­ti­ple ones.
