Project name
Simulation of a 6 Degrees of freedom manipulator
Project short description
The goal of this project is to develop a simulator for a 6-DOF robot manipulator, using Open Dynamics Engine library (ODE) for simulating the rigid body dynamics and OpenGL 3D Graphic for visualization. The project involves three different phases:
- Building a physical model of the Unimate Puma 560 manipulator using ODE primitives for articulated rigid bodies
- Choosing and implementing forward and inverse kinematic routines for the previously developed robot model
- Choosing and mplementing control modules and trajectory planning routines
The simulator will be provided with a custom designed user interface (based on Trolltech's QT platform) allowing the user to control the robot both in the cartesian and in the joint space.

Laboratory work and risk analysis
Laboratory work for this project will be mainly performed at AIRLab/Lambrate. Potential risks are only related to the use of PCs.
- Standard safety measures are described in [1]
