Abstract

This paper reports on the outgrowth of a complete simulation system for robotic manipulators. The development of general procedures for the kinematic and dynamic simulation of articulated robots and the integration of these procedures into a CAD system are discussed. Particular attention is devoted to the solution of the inverse kinematic and of the motion planning problem. The integration of procedures for the kinematic simulation and the preliminary studies for the integration of dynamics and control procedures confirm the importance of CAD as a basic tool for developing robotic applications.
