Fast Trajectory Planning for VGT Manipulator via Convex Optimization

Variable-geometry truss (VGT) can be used as joints in a large, lightweight, high load-bearing manipulator for many industrial applications. This paper introduces the modelling process of a multisection three-degree-freedom double octahedral VGT manipulator and proposes a new point-to-point trajecto...
