  • Abstract
    The authors (1990) have shown that from the Jacobian rate of change matrix is it possible to derive a dexterity measure for robot manipulators. In this article this criterion is further extended for its application on the evaluation of several redundant wrist mechanisms for a commercial manipulator design.<>
