in this article a new and an accurate method for kinematic and dynamic analysis of a parallel robot 3prs and a hybrid robot (parallel and serial) 3prs-rrp are presented, which is based on the denavit-hartenberg transformation matrix algebra. first, basic properties of various kinds of robots are compared, and then the denavit-hartenberg parameters and their table are introduced. next, the metho...

The aim of this paper is twofold: first, to explore the effects of industrial cluster on innovation capacity, and second, to study the impact of external resources on firms’ innovation capacity especially under Chinese regional economic policy. This is a critical subject that lacks sufficient analysis. Through years of investment and effort, several IT industrial clusters have developed in Chin...

The present paper investigates an intuitive way of robot path planning, called robot teaching by demonstration. In this method, an operator holds the robot end-effector and moves it through a number of positions and orientations in order to teach it a desired task. The presented control architecture applies impedance control in such a way that the end-effector follows the operator’s hand with d...

Design, modeling, manufacturing and experimental analysis of a six degree freedom robot, suitable for industrial applications, has been described in this paper. The robot was designed on the assumption that, each joint has an independent DC motor actuator, with gear reduction and measuring sensor for angular joint position. Mechanical design of the robot was done using Mechanical Desktop and ma...

This paper presents a methodology and a prototype system for off-line programming of an industrial robot using augmented reality technology. The system allows to control a virtual model of the industrial robot co-located in the real environment, planning for collision-free paths, generate robot program and simulate the robot actions before the real robot perform the task. The advantage of this ...

Three dimensional (3D) vision systems are more and more used in recent industrial robot applications for enhancing robot flexibility and intelligence. This paper presents a method of integrating 3D binocular stereo vision systems into industrial robot systems. Examples are used to illustrate the developed method and its implementation including vision system setup and calibration, robot hand-ey...

A new calibration method for industrial robot system calibration on a manufacturing floor is presented in this paper. To calibrate the robot system, a laser sensor to measure the distance between robot tool and measurement surface is attached to the robot end-effector and a grid is established in the floor. Given two position command pulses for a robot manipulator and using the position differe...
