• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

For senior-yearundergraduate and first-year graduate courses in robotics.

An intuitiveintroduction to robotic theory and application

Since its originalpublication in 1986, Craig's Introduction to Robotics: Mechanics andControl has been the leading textbook for teaching robotics at theuniversity level. Blending traditional mechanical engineering material withcomputer science and control theoretical concepts, the text covers a range oftopics, including rigid-body transformations, forward and inverse positionalkinematics, velocities and Jacobians of linkages, dynamics, linear andnon-linear control, force control methodologies, mechanical design aspects, androbotic programming.

The 4th Edition featuresa balance of application and theory, introducing the science and engineering ofmechanical manipulation-establishing and building on foundational understandingof mechanics, control theory, and computer science. With an emphasis on the computationalaspects of problems, the text aims to present material in a simple, intuitive manner.

Autorenporträt

Prof. John J. Craig taught at the Department of Electrical Engineering, Stanford University. His book Introduction to Robotics: Mechanics and Control evolved from class notes used to teach an introductory course on robotics at Stanford University during the autumns of 1983 through 1985. Over the next few years, Prof. Craig actively collaborated with his associates at Stanford, SILMA Inc., and Adept to fine-tune and enhance this book's content, thus contributing to its relevance for students of today. Further, in 1987, his PhD thesis on "Adaptive Control of Mechanical Manipulators" was published by the International Journal of Robotics Research and received critical acclaim.
