Parallel robots with configurable platforms are a class of robots in which the end-effector has an inner mobility, so that its overall shape can be reconfigured: in most cases, the end-effector is thus a closed-loop kinematic chain composed of rigid links. These robots have a greater flexibility in their motion and control with respect to...

Parallel robots with a configurable platform are a class of parallel robots in which the end-effector is a closed-loop kinematic chain. In n-RRR planar robots the end-effector is a n-bar chain controlled by n actuated RRR chains connected to the base. We solve the direct kinematic problem for 4, 5 and 6-RRR mechanisms by using bilateration, a...
