Globally Optimal Solution to Inverse Kinematics of 7DOF Serial Manipulator

Solver for inverse kinematics tasks for general serial manipulators with seven revolute joints. It combines symbolical and numerical approaches to find a global solution to a polynomial objective function. A toolbox for Matlab.

Usage

Solver for each of the manipulators is stored in separate folders. DH parameters of the manipulator are saved in the MATLAB file manipulator.mat. For direct solving by the POP solver, please, refer to the script file gloptipoly.m. For the approach with the symbolic reduction step, please, refer to the script file GB.m. These files are self-explanatory.

For a detailed description of this software, please refer to [1].

Several MATLAB toolboxes are required to be installed: GloptiPoly [2], YALMIP [3], and MOSEK [4]. For symbolic preprocessing, Maple installation is needed.
