Abstract

This chapter presents the concept of the solution based on indirect actuation approach. This configuration aims at positioning the control points of the rendered trajectory in the space. The degree of freedom of the device are controlled by using indirect actuation systems, which are described in the following paragraphs. Moreover in this chapter we will describe the performed kinematic analysis, the design of the components and the developed prototype. In this manner, it has been possible to evaluate the pros and the limits of the presented solution.
