Abstract
The knowledge of the workspace of a 2 DOF mini parallel robot is very important in planning a dextrous manipulation task. In this paper, we propose an approach to compute and visualize the workspace of a 2 DOF mini parallel robot. Planar parallel robots are good candidates for microminiaturization into a microdevice. The workspace is one of the most important kinematic properties of robots, even by practical viewpoint because of its impact on robot design. A program was created in MATLAB for workspace analysis of 2 DOF parallel robots. Singular configurations are also obtained.
