The Current Situation and Progress of 4-DOF Parallel Robot

摘要

In this paper, the existing research and key technologies of 4-DOF parallel robot are reviewed, i.e., mechanism, kinematics, singularity, workspace, dexterity, dynamics and control. Most of them are focused on mechanism and kinematics. The study in dynamics and control is relatively rare and not mature in practice, especially in how to optimize the control strategies to improve its performance. Finally, the research trend and unsolved problem of 4-DOF parallel robot is described.
