چکیده
In this paper, an algorithm is proposed to avoid singularity associated with the most famous minimum element attitude parametrization, Euler angle set. The proposed algorithm makes use of the method of sequential rotation to avoid singularity associated with Euler angle set. Further, a switching algorithm is also proposed to switch between different Euler angle sets to avoid the singularity while integrating the kinematic equations corresponding to Euler angles for spacecraft motion. The algorithm is numerically validated by simulation tests.

COORDINATE INFLUENCE ON SINGULARITY OF A 3-UPS PARALLEL MANIPULATOR
This paper shows the coordinates influence on singularity of a three degree-of-freedom structure, namely, three-Universal-Prismatic-Spherical (3-UPS) parallel manipulator. Rotational coordinates, which are chosen to define the orientation of the platform, affect the singularity of the manipulator. Euler parameters, which don't have any inherent geometrical singularity are utilized, however they...
متن کاملOvercoming Singularity of Euler Angles in Robot Pose Estimation using Axis Rotation
In this paper, the singularity of Euler angles rotation representation in robot pose estimation is overcome. This is accomplished through coordinate system rotating and sign-adjusting of the intrinsic parameter camera matrices. A stereo pair is attached to the robot and the extended Kalman filter is used as a recursive pose estimator. An extensive set of synthetic and real experiments have been...
متن کاملEuler Angle Based Attitude Estimation Avoiding the Singularity Problem
Precise control of UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) or MAV (Micro Aerial Vehicle), requires the accurate determination of vehicle orientation. Attitude and heading reference systems (AHRS) are popularly used for vehicle orientation determination. In these systems, Euler angle estimation is more appropriate than quaternion estimation because the accelerometer measurement and magnetometer measuremen...
متن کاملSingularity-free dynamic equations of spacecraft-manipulator systems
In this paper we derive the singularity-free dynamic equations of spacecraftmanipulator systems using a minimal representation. Spacecraft are normally modeled using Euler angles, which leads to singularities, or Euler parameters, which is not a minimal representation and thus not suited for Lagrange’s equations. We circumvent these issues by introducing quasi-coordinates which allows us to der...

This article presents a way to draw Euler angles such that the proper operation and application becomes immediately clear. Furthermore, Euler parameters, which allow a singularity-free description of rotational motion, are discussed within the framework of quaternion algebra and are applied to the kinematics and dynamics of a rigid body. 1 Euler Angles In rigid body mechanics we need to keep tr...
