چکیده
In this research work, an attempt is made to completely automate a wheelchair for wheeling and walking. For this the design criteria of the wheel chair are analyzed and then compared for an optimization task. Thus a newer design of wheel chair is developed which can be stable even when it is lifted to certain height. Using this stability of the design, legs are made to walk and to climb the stairs with less vibrations and jerks. The design of the legs and the integrated wheel chair and leg design is given in the paper and the effectiveness of the product is discussed in detail.

Inverse Kinematics Resolution of Redundant Cooperative Manipulators Using Optimal Control Theory
The optimal path planning of cooperative manipulators is studied in the present research. Optimal Control Theory is employed to calculate the optimal path of each joint choosing an appropriate index of the system to be minimized and taking the kinematics equations as the constraints. The formulation has been derived using Pontryagin Minimum Principle and results in a Two Point Boundary Value Pr...

متن کاملAn Adaptive-Robust Control Approach for Trajectory Tracking of two 5 DOF Cooperating Robot Manipulators Moving a Rigid Payload
In this paper, a dual system consisting of two 5 DOF (RRRRR) robot manipulators is considered as a cooperative robotic system used to manipulate a rigid payload on a desired trajectory between two desired initial and end positions/orientations. The forward and inverse kinematic problems are first solved for the dual arm system. Then, dynamics of the system and the relations between forces/momen...
