Singular Curves in the Joint Space and Cusp Points of 3-RPR parallel manipulators
This paper investigates the singular curves in the joint space of a family of planar parallel manipulators. It focuses on special points, referred to as cusp points, which may app...

A projected back-tracking line-search for constrained interactive inverse kinematics
Inverse kinematics is the problem of manipulating the pose of an articulated figure in order to achieve a desired goal disregarding inertia and forces. One can approach the probl...

Interactive behaviors for bipedal articulated figures
We describe techniques for interactively controlling bipedal articulated figures through kinematic constraints. These constraints model certain behavioral tendencies which capture...
