A spherical robot, also known as spherical mobile robot, or ball-shaped robot is a mobile robot with spherical external shape. [1] A spherical robot is typically made of a spherical shell serving as the body of the robot and an internal driving unit (IDU) that enables the robot to move. [2] Spherical mobile robots typically move by rolling over ...
Additional degrees of freedom allow to change the configuration of some link on the arm (e.g., elbow up/down), while keeping the robot hand in the same pose. Inverse kinematics is the mathematical process to calculate the configuration of an arm, typically in terms of joint angles, given a desired pose of the robot hand in three dimensional space.
PUMA 560 C robot arm segment measurements. [4] 6 Axis arm with 3 axis making up a spherical wrist. [5] Maximum reach 878mm from center axis to center of wrist [5] Software selectable payloads from 4 kg to 2.5 kg [5] Arm weight: 83 kg (approximate) [6] Repeatability ±0.1mm [7] 2.5 kg max velocity: 500mm/sec straight line moves [7]
This provides a direct relationship between actuator positions and the configuration of the manipulator defined by its forward and inverse kinematics. Robot arms are described by their degrees of freedom. This is a practical metric, in contrast to the abstract definition of degrees of freedom which measures the aggregate positioning capability ...
Chinese robotics company, Logon Technology, unveiled the RT-G autonomous spherical robot which will use AI and facial recognition to aid law enforcement.
Cartesian robots, [5] also called rectilinear, gantry robots, and x-y-z robots [6] have three prismatic joints for the movement of the tool and three rotary joints for its orientation in space. To be able to move and orient the effector organ in all directions, such a robot needs 6 axes (or degrees of freedom).
A manipulator can move an object with up to 6 degrees of freedom (DoF), determined by 3 translation 3T and 3 rotation 3R coordinates for full 3T3R mobility. However, when a manipulation task requires less than 6 DoF, the use of lower mobility manipulators, with fewer than 6 DoF, may bring advantages in terms of simpler architecture, easier control, faster motion and lower cost.

A ball balancing robot also known as a ballbot is a dynamically-stable mobile robot designed to balance on a single spherical wheel (i.e., a ball). Through its single contact point with the ground, a ballbot is omnidirectional and thus exceptionally agile, maneuverable and organic in motion compared to other ground vehicles.
