Position-based kinematics for 7-DoF serial manipulators with global configuration control, joint limit and singularity avoidance

This paper presents a novel analytic method to uniquely solve inverse kinematics of 7 degrees-of-freedom manipulators while avoiding joint limits and singularities. Two auxiliary parameters are introduced to deal with the self-motion manifolds: the global configuration (GC), which specifies the bran...
