Kinematics

Introduction

Kinematics is the mapping of joint angles to the end effector position. It allows us to calculate how to control the robot arm.

Generalisation

The method of these kinematic calculations should generalise to other similar geometry (4 axis) robot arms.

For example:

Forward kinematic calculations

The forward kinematic calculations are implemented in the kinematic_model.py python module, in the forwardKinematics function.

Inverse kinematic calculations

The inverse kinematic calculations are implemented in the kinematic_model.py python module, in the inverseKinematics function.
