Summary

A new method for calculating the Jacobian for a general n degree-of-freedom robot manipulator is presented and compared with some known other methods. The computational efficiency of the method is estimated in terms of the number of multiplications, additions/subtractions, trigonometric functions required, and the execution time on a VAX 11/750 computer. It is shown that the new method proposed in this paper is one of the most efficient when applied on a robot manipulator with successively parallel or rectangular joint rotations.
