摘要
A system has been developed to interactively assemble modular and reconfigurable robotic systems in a computer animation environment. The modular robot is based on a set of one, two and three degree of freedom joint modules and generic links. These modules may be assembled into a large class of robotic systems that include serial, parallel, mobile and hybrid configurations. A model of the configured robotic system is immediately available for use in a wide variety of robotics research areas, including: obstacle avoidance, redundant inverse kinematics, dynamic simulations, mobile platforms and world model databases.
