The book also covers the problem of trajectory generation and robot programming. The text, apart from providing a detailed account of topics such as on taxonomy of robots, spatial description of rigid bodies, Kinematics of the manipulator, the concept of dexterous Workspace, the concept of singularity, manipulator dynamics using both the newton–Euler and Lagrangian approaches with a deeper insight into the manipulator dynamics, manipulator control, and programming, additionally encompasses topics on motion planning, intelligent control, and distributed control of Manipulators. The book is an excellent learning resource for understanding the complexities of manipulator design, analysis, and operation. It clearly presents ideas without compromising on the mathematical rigour ER -
