Homework 13
16-311 Introduction to Robotics
Prof. Howie Choset

Due at beginning of class on Wednesday, April 29th


  • (70%) Group:
  • (30%) Individual:
    1. Show that the cart can achieve full (x, y, θ) degrees of freedom using Lie Bracket analysis.
      1. State the constraint vector w1(q)
      2. State the allowable motion vectors g1(q) and g2(q)
      3. Compute the Lie Bracket of g1and g2

       

    2. Compute the inverse kinematics for the following system:
      • A mobile robot with a two link manipulator on board.
      • The location and orientation of the mobile base is (x,y,α).
      • The two link manipulator is attached such that the axes of rotation are perpendicular to the page in the Side View image.
      • The first joint of the two-link manipulator is a height h from the floor.

      Given a desired X, Y, Z, and Ω, determine the (x,y) position for the mobile robot, as well as its orientation alpha and the angles τ1 and τ2.
