Abstract

Parallel platform robot’s unique structure presents an interesting problem in its direct kinematics solution. It involves the solving of a series of simultaneous non-linear equation and, usually, non-unique, multiple sets of solutions are obtained from one set of data. In this paper, we present a concise approach for solving the direct kinematics problem of a parallel manipulator robot. The proposed method is comparatively concise and reduces the computational burden.
