Consider the RP planar manipulator shown below. Angle OAE is a right angle. The revolute
joint rotates about origin O . The length of the first linkage is a constant parameter OA=a1.
The length of the second linkage is a variable AE=d2.
a.(20 points) Obtain the forward kinematic equations relating the end-effecter position xE,
yE and orientation E to the joint displacements 1 and d2.
b.(20 points) Given the end effector position (xE,yE), derive the inverse kinematics. Your
answer should define (1,d2) as functions of the (xE,yE) position.
Consider the RP planar manipulator shown below.
