Robot Modeling and Control, 1/e
by Mark W. Spong, Seth Hutchinson, M. Vidyasagar
Condition: Very Good
Robot Modeling and Control introduces the fundamentals of robot modeling and control and provides background material on terminology, linear algebra, dynamical systems and stability theory, followed by detailed coverage of forward and in-verse kinematics, Jacobians, Lagrangian dynamics, motion planning, robust and adaptive motion and force control, and com-puter vision. Both basic and advanced material is presented in a style that is readable and mathematically rigorous. The book provides relevant applications from industrial robotics and mobile robotics. Suitable for a one or two term course, this text is appropriate for undergraduate and graduate students from electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, computer science, and mathematics and can be used as a research reference. Many detailed worked examples and extensive problems illustrate theory and point the reader to more advanced topics.
Key Features
- A step-by-step computational approach helps you derive and compute the forward kinematics, inverse kinematics, and Jacobians for the most common robot designs.
- Detailed coverage of vision and visual servo control enables you to program robots to manipulate objects sensed by cameras.
- An entire chapter on dynamics prepares you to compute the dynamics of the most common manipulator designs.
- The most common motion planning and trajectory generation algorithms are presented in an elementary style.
- The comprehensive treatment of motion and force control includes both basic and advanced methods.
- The text’s treatment of geometric nonlinear control is more readable than in more advanced texts.
- Many worked examples and an extensive list of problems illustrate all aspects of the theory.
Note: This is a used book – there is no escaping the fact it has been read by someone else and it will show signs of wear and previous use. Overall we expect it to be in very good condition, but if you are not entirely satisfied please get in touch with us.
