Add to basketThis book brings out analytical paradigms and research outcomes of novel assistive robots that are deployed in healthcare or surveillance and indoor service or agricultural activity. It attends to specific design-thread and hardware paradigms of the ensemble domain of assistive robots. This book addresses important research issues of assistive robotics, such as introduction of skewed co-ordinate reference frame (in lieu of the Cartesian system), kinematics of compliant systems, non-linear coupled dynamics, and run-time dynamics under uncertain robotic workspace.
Key Features:
This book is aimed at graduate students and researchers in robotics, artificial intelligence, signal processing, and electrical engineering.
