Type 1 Singularity Loci of 3-DOF Symmetric Spherical Parallel Mechanisms
  Version:  1.00  Type1SPMs.zip (6 Kb)
  Last Modified:  June 16, 2005
  Author:  Ilian Bonev
  Requirements:  MATLAB 7
This program consists of several MATLAB scripts used for plotting the Type 1 singularity loci of 3-DOF spherical parallel mechanisms.

Simulation of 3–RRR Planar Parallel Manipulators
  Version:  1.00  RRR.zip (7 Kb)
  Last Modified:  July 20, 2000 View a screen shot
  Author:  Ilian Bonev
  Requirements:  MATLAB 5
This program consists of several MATLAB scripts used for simulation of 3–RRR planar parallel manipulators. The program consists essentially of a graphical user interface that allows the user to define interactively the position and orientation of the mobile platform. At each change in the pose, the inverse kinematic problem is solved and the new configuration is plotted. Additionally, at each change in the orientation of the mobile platform, the constant-orientation workspace is computed and plotted.

Simulation of 6–PUS Parallel Manipulators
  Version:  1.00  PUS.zip (9 Kb)

  Author:  Ilian Bonev
  Requirements:  MATLAB 5

CUIK++: An Extension of Branch-and-Prune Techniques for Motion Analysis and Synthesis of Complex Robotic Systems
  Version:  n/a  Download
  Authors:  Kinematics and Robot Design Group (IRI, Barcelona)
  Requirements:  Linux or Mac OS
The CUIK Suite is a software toolbox for the kinematic analysis of general mechanisms involving open or closed kinematic chains. For a given mechanism, the algorithms can compute its configuration space and various singularity loci, the workspace relative to a set of coordinates, and collision- or singularity-free paths between given configurations. The toolbox has been tested on multiple serial and parallel robots, cable-driven robots, robot hands, tensegrity structures, and molecules. It is developed by the Kinematics and Robot Design Group at IRI, Barcelona (Catalonia).
