N-Link Modular Smart Robotic Arm Public

Today, 2.6 million industrial robots have been deployed for applications worldwide, allowing us to produce, sort, and create products faster. The goal of this MQP is to develop a modular robotic arm with N-links that can position its end effector in a 3D task space regarding of the number of links attached. It is also a priority that the arm is fault-tolerant and can be removed and attached in real-time without requiring a reboot. The results of this project show a detailed evaluation for the modular robotic arm that verifies that the arm would operate as predicted if it were fully constructed.
