A Mathematical Introduction to Robotic Manipulation

By Richard M. Murray, Zexiang Li, Shankar Sastry, et al.

Book Overview

A Mathematical Introduction to Robotic Manipulation presents a unified formulation of the kinematics, dynamics, and control of robot manipulators. The authors use an elegant set of mathematical tools that emphasizes the geometry of robot motion and allows a large class of robotic manipulation problems to be analyzed within a unified framework. The foundation of the book is a derivation of robot kinematics using the product of the exponentials formula. The wealth of information, numerous examples, and exercises make this book valuable as both a reference for robotics researchers and a text for students in advanced robotics courses.
