  • Abstract
    The minimum traveling time of a rigid body along a specified geometric path can be achieved by switching between extremal allowable accelerations. A linear programming (LP) problem is formulated to obtain such extreme accelerations for a body handled by multiple robotic manipulators or robotic fingers. Both rigid grasping and grasping with point contacts have been treated
