摘要
This paper presents some initial solutions to the problem of accuracy and repeatability of the arm position placement in applied kinematics by solving the inverse kinematics problem of a serial jointed manipulator whose forward kinematics solution was earlier presented to solve the position placement problem of a mobile manipulator for Lunar Oxygen production. The problem herein is that of identifying a combination of joint angles to effectively position the end-effecter at a specified location in space. The reverse solution as presented in this paper is predicated on DH＇s （Denavit-Hartenberg＇s） technique for robot arm position analysis. The generalized solution for the 5-degrees of freedom DOF （degree of freedom） revolute joint variables which comprises 2-1inks and a spade-like 3-DOF end-effecter was obtained by solving a set of algebraic equations emerging from series of transformation matrices. The proposed solution herein has a high degree of accuracy and repeatability for workspace reachable domains where joint combination is analytic.
