Features: This book is based on the lecture notes of Stanford University's "Introduction to Robotics" during the fall semesters of 1983 to 1985. It covers the theory and engineering problems of robotic manipulators, which belong to the sub-discipline of robotics and are built upon several traditional disciplines. Chapters 1-8 introduce relevant mechanical engineering and mathematics, chapters 9-11 discuss control theory and methods, and chapters 12-13 present the content of computer science. Additionally, each chapter ends with a large number of exercises, programming assignments, and MATLAB exercises, and the answers to some exercises are provided at the end of the book for the convenience of readers.
