Automatic generation of interference-free geometric models of spatial mechanisms

This work presents methods used to obtain geometric models of spatial mechanisms which can be realized in hardware. Each model is created automatically from the kinematic description of a mechanism. The models are tested for interference between joints and links. Models with interfering links or joi...
