Dynamic Dexterity and Isotropy of Mobile Robots: An Endogenous Configuration Space Approach

  • Conference paper
On Advances in Robot Kinematics

Abstract

By extension of kinematic dexterity and isotropy concepts for mobile manipula­tors, defined within the endogenous configuration space approach, we introduce corresponding dynamic performance measures for nonholonomic mobile robots. As an illustration dynamically dextrous and isotropic configurations have been computed for the mobile robot MK.
