Project name

Simulation of a 6 degrees of freedom manipulator

The Puma 560 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 implementing 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.
