Robot Modelling, 6 credits

This course is focusing on the kinematic modelling of multiple degrees of freedom manipulator robots. The course starts with building the foundation in robot kinematics by focusing on the forward kinematic problem which is to calculate, based on all robot joints, where the tooltip is located. Further on in the course, the focus changes to calculate the inverse kinematics problem, i.e. to define how the joints should change so the robot can reach a specified point. The course consists of Matlab exercises to model and simulate robot manipulators.
