A Universal Planar Manipulator Dan S. Reznik & Prof. John Canny UC-Berkeley July, 2000
(x,y,q) 1 horizontal, rigid plate enough?

Interesting Apps • Novel tangible UI’s • Force feedback with viscous feel • Active desk • Fancy product displays • Rotate wine bottles • Fluid-based micro manipulation
Parallel Manipulation N parts => 2N constraints
Our Idea • Horizontal Plate: 3 dof • Task: move N-parts • Proposal: Generate local fields • Move parts almost one-by-one
C -C “Local” Field

PC Interface video capture A/D signal generation
Image Processing • Plate edges • Coin positions • Initial • tracking
Bowtie (vhs)
Summary • Motivation: simplest possible manipulator • Use non-linearity of friction and asymmetric motion (few harmonics) • Very general parallel manipulator • Other suggested apps?
