A rapidly deployable manipulator system
Journal Article, Robotics and Autonomous Systems, Vol. 21, No. 3, pp. 289 - 304, September, 1997
Abstract
A rapidly deployable manipulator system combines the flexibility of reconfigurable modular hardware with modular programming tools, allowing the user to rapidly create and program a manipulator, which is custom-tailored for a given task. This article describes the main building blocks of such a system: a reconfigurable modular manipulator system (RMMS), modular and reusable control software, and a novel agent-based approach to task-based design of modular manipulators.
