摘要：Robotic arm, which is a popular serial manipulator, has been studied for a couple of decides, especially in the areas of theoretical study including forward kinematics, inverse kinematics, singularity, workspace, various fancy control methods and simulations. In a word, a lot of research activities in academia focused on the robotic mechanism and mathematics study. Because teaching and research co-exist in most universities, current trend makes the university robot education too theoretical. In this situation, experimental study is much more important to boost both the short-term and long-term developments of the real robot technology. There is no obvious drawback of the experimental robot education, namely a lot of purchased robots are not built based on op en source. Many industrial robots have self-carried closed-source software which is developed for end-users rather than developers. While for university robotics education the students are better to be treated as the developers while not end-users. Thus, the authors here propose a concept of Open-Source Robotics to explore theexperimental study for new kinematic control techniques of the 4DOF arm. The proposed idea is applicable for the generic robotic manipulators
