چکیده

This paper investigates the problem of reasoning about the kinematic interactions between parts of a mechanism We introduce the concept of Place Vocabularies as a useful symbolic description of the possible interactions We examine the requirements for the representation and introduce a definition of place vocabularies that satisfies them We show how this representation can be computed from metric data and used as a basis for qualitative envisionments of mechanism behavior, and describe implemented algorithms to solve this problem 1 In t roduc t i on

Design Platform for Planar Mechanisms based on a Qualitative Kinematics

Our long term aim is to address the open problem of combined structural/dimensional synthesis for planar mechanisms . For that purpose, we have developed a design platform for linkages with lower pairs which is based on a qualitative kinematics . Our qualitative kinematics is based on the notion of Instantaneous Centers of Velocity, on considerations of curvature and on a modular decomposition ...

Reasoning about Kinematic Topology

Reasoning about kinematics is an important aspect of common sens e physics. In earlier work, we have developed the place vocabulary theory of qualitative kinematics in mechanisms, a formal theory for representin g the kinematic behavior of two-dimensional mechanisms . The computation of a place vocabulary is very complex because it takes into accoun t the details of object shapes . In this pape...

Qualitative Kinematics: A Framework

Qualitative spatial reasoning has seen little progress This paper attempts to explain why We provide a framework for qualitative kinematics (QK), qualitative spatial reasoning about motion We propose that no general-purpose, purely qualitative kinematics exists. We propose instead the MD/PV model of spatial reasoning, which combines the power of diagrams with qualitative representations Next we...

Kinematic Mapping and Forward Kinematic Problem of a 5-DOF (3T2R) Parallel Mechanism with Identical Limb Structures

The main objective of this paper is to study the Euclidean displacement of a 5-DOF parallel mechanism performing three translation and two independent rotations with identical limb structures-recently revealed by performing the type synthesis-in a higher dimensional projective space, rather than relying on classical recipes, such as Cartesian coordinates and Euler angles. In this paper, Study's...

Robot Control on Symbolic Trajectory Generation and Atomic Motion Behaviours

Intelligent connection of numeric data and symbolic or cognitive function plays a crucial role in AI robotics. This problem is also defined as symbol grounding or perceptual anchoring problem in different contexts. In this paper we consider this problem from fundamental robot kinematics, Qualitative kinematics of planar robots has been proposed in this paper based on aggregation operators and f...

Efficient Qualitative Kinematics

A theory of qualitative kinematics is required for qualitative reasoning about the motion of objects in space . Such reasoning is important for many physical problem-solving tasks, such as design or robot plan ning. The practicality of earlier work has been limited by the complexity and non-compositionality of computing with configuration space constraints . This paper describes a much more eff...
