This book presents a comprehensive account of robotics control, focusing on how movement, coordination, and decision-making are achieved in modern robotic systems. It explores the principles that govern robotic motion, including the relationship between mechanical design, kinematic behaviour, and control mechanisms. The discussion considers how robots plan and execute actions within dynamic environments, highlighting the role of algorithms in managing motion, timing, and interaction with surroundings. It also reflects on the integration of planning and control, illustrating how systems adapt to constraints while maintaining precision and stability. Attention is given to emerging developments in robotics, including flexible structures and advanced planning approaches that expand the capabilities of automated systems. By combining theoretical insight with applied engineering perspectives, the text offers a clear understanding of control processes in robotics.
The book aims to develop the reader's ability to understand and apply control principles in robotic systems, enabling effective design, analysis, and implementation of intelligent and adaptive automation technologies.
