A PC based configuration controller for dexterous 7-DOF arms

Abstract
This implementation of a configuration controller for a dexterous 7-DOF manipulator on an IBM-compatible personal computer represents a step toward high-performance robotic controllers designed with consumer electronics. The system has the capability for 3D graphical animation of the arm motion, which is performed on a separate single-board computer interfaced to the PC. Several experiments have shown the control performance comparable to that obtained with more expensive computing platforms.
