Abstract

A generic three-dimensional graphic simulation system with multiple viewpoints has been implemented. Beside presenting instant visual response to user´s instruction and/or teaching script, it has other features such as graphics overlay on video images and virtual fixture. It is useful for students to study basic principles of robot kinematics/dynamic as well as scientific research. Most notably, by a flexible configuration tool, this system can simulate a broad range of different user-defined robots.
