This book presents a unified mathematical treatment of diverse problems in the
general domain of robotics and associated fields using Clifford or geometric alge-
bra. By addressing a wide spectrum of problems in a common language, it offers
both fresh insights and new solutions that are useful to scientists and engineers
working in areas related with robotics.
It introduces non-specialists to Clifford and geometric algebra, and provides ex-
amples to help readers learn how to compute using geometric entities and geomet-
ric formulations. It also includes an in-depth study of applications of Lie group
theory, Lie algebra, spinors and versors and the algebra of incidence using theuniversal geometric algebra generated by reciprocal null cones.
Featuring a detailed study of kinematics, differential kinematics and dynamics
using geometric algebra, the book also develops Euler Lagrangeand Hamiltoni-
ans equations for dynamics using conformal geometric algebra, and the recursive
Newton-Euler using screw theory in the motor algebra framework. Further, it
comprehensively explores robot modeling and nonlinear controllers, and discusses
several applications in computer vision, graphics, neurocomputing, quantum com-
puting, robotics and control engineering using the geometric algebra framework.
The book also includes over 200 exercises and tips for the development of future
computer software packages for extensive calculations in geometric algebra, and a
entire section focusing on how to write the subroutines in C++, Matlab and Maple
to carry out efficient geometric computations in the geometric algebra framework.
Lastly, it shows how program code can be optimized for real-time computations.
An essential resource for applied physicists, computer scientists, AI researchers,
roboticists and mechanical and electrical engineers, the book clarifies and demon-
strates the importance of geometric computing for building autonomous systems
to advance cognitive systems research."Synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to Revaluation Books, Hounslow, United Kingdom, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
