From the reviews of the first edition:
„The monograph is concerned with the position and force control of redundant robot manipulators from both theoretical and experimental points of view. It contains a rich bibliography as well as a full symbol and subject index. Its aim is to provide an introduction for graduate students and researchers in the field of control of redundant robot manipulators. … it is a useful learning tool for scientists and engineers from academia and industry.“ (Clementina Mladenova, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1081, 2006)
This monograph provides a comprehensive and thorough treatment of the problem of controlling a redundant robot manipulator. It presents the latest research from the field with a good balance between theory and practice. All theoretical developments are verified both via simulation and experimental work on an actual prototype redundant robot manipulator. This book is the first text aimed at graduate students and researchers working in the area of redundant manipulators giving a comprehensive coverage of control of redundant robot manipulators from the viewpoint of theory and experimentation.
