  • Abstract
    A novel algorithmic approach to the reachable workspace determination is presented. The reachable workspace is that volume of space which the end effector can reach. The present work is restricted to special geometries which have a 2R or a 3R planar pair, but the resulting algorithm appears to be applicable to any manipulator geometry. Computation results are presented for a 2R and a 3R redundant planar pair
