Fundamentals of robotic mechanical systems : theory, methods, and algorithms
This book deals with robots that rely on a mechanical system to perform their tasks and that can be programmed in a high-level language to control these tasks. It aims to establish the foundations on which the design, control and implementation of robot mechanical systems are based. The treatment assumes familiarity with some calculus; however, the presentation is self-contained
