This paper presents an overview of the literature on kinematic and calibration models of
parallel mechanisms, the influence of sensors in the mechanism accuracy and parallel …

In this contribution the kinematic and dynamic analyses, up to the determination of the
driving forces, of a specific class of series–parallel manipulators, known as 2 (3-RPS) …

In this paper, we propose a new spherical parallel robot for celestial orientation, and
rehabilitation applications (TV satellite dish, tracking systems, solar panels, cameras …

Solar trackers are devices that improve the efficiency of photovoltaic collectors increasing
the area exposed to direct radiation of the sun. The main drawback of these kinds of devices …

Inverse dynamics of a general model of a spherical star-triangle (SST) parallel manipulator
(Enferadi and Akbarzadeh Tootoonchi, Robotica 27: 663–676, 2009) is the subject of this …

Existing ankle rehabilitation robots have the limitations of insufficient motion ranges and
coupled translations. An improved spherical robot has been proposed to overcome these …

In this paper, we introduce a new approach for forward position analysis of a double-triangle
(DT) spherical parallel manipulator. Utilizing spherical geometry of the manipulator, two …

This paper presents a new approach to compare several non-overconstrained solutions of
the 3-RRR Spherical Parallel Manipulator (SPM). The 3-RRR SPM is known to be highly …

In this paper, we use principle of virtual work to obtain the direct dynamics analysis of a 3-
RRP spherical parallel manipulator, also called spherical star-triangle (SST) manipulator …

A non-overconstrained three-DOF parallel orientation mechanism that is kinematically
equivalent to the Agile Eye is presented in this paper. The output link (end-effector) of the …
