Summary:A robot arm controller has been developed with a dual emphasis on
performance and flexibility. It includes a general-purpose interface for
a host microcomputer, and can be configured with up to two
floating-point signal processors. The controller responds to high-level
control commands from the host, computes the arm trajectory, and
corrects motion errors in real-time using Newton-Euler equations. By
relieving the host computer of all computational requirements, this
controller design permits one host to control multiple robot arms while
maintaining maximum performance
