Abstract

A geometric version of the well known Newton-Raphson methods is introduced. This root finding method is adapted to find the zero of a function defined on the group of rigid body displacements. At each step of the algorithm a rigid displacement is found that approximates the solution. The method is applied to the forward kinematics problem of the Gough-Stewart platform. © 2009 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
