Introduction
Robot kinematics and their modelling and analysis are essential in robot systems. Therefore, it is important to learn basic concepts of kinematics in robotics and their applications in solving practical robotic problems. The objective of this course is to introduce learners to basic concepts of kinematics in robotics. The focus is to provide learners with the knowledge and skills in modelling and analysis of robot kinematics. This course also covers trajectory planning and differential motion so as to provide a broader understanding of the topic.
This course is part of:
- Graduate Certificate in Computer Control and Automation
- FlexiMasters in Computer Control and Automation

Upon completion, learners should:
1. Obtain the forward kinematics of a robotic manipulator using Denavit-Hartenberg algorithm;
2. Solve the inverse kinematic problem and assign tool frames in a robot work cell and;
3. Interpret differential motion and derive a Jacobian matrix of the robot manipulator.
Classification of robots and Homogeneous transformation. Kinematics: Forward kinematics; Inverse kinematics; Jacobian matrix. Trajectory planning.
