Abstract

The mathematical model of a space based manipulator arm with a rate controlled end effector is defined and the recursive algorithms for the computation of the basic djmamic functions are formulated. A digital simulation of this system is implemented and preliminary results are presented. Actual running times for the simulation In a VAX 750 computer for the six degrees of freedom rate controlled manipulator are faster than real time.
