Hierarchical Kinematic Modelling and Optimal Design of a Novel Hexapod Robot with Integrated Limb Mechanism

This paper presents a novel hexapod robot, hereafter named PH-Robot, with three degrees of freedom (3-DOF) parallel leg mechanisms based on the concept of an integrated limb mechanism (ILM) for the integration of legged locomotion and arm manipulation. The kinematic model plays an important role in...
