Constraint Driven Animation of the robot retrievng a tetra from the loading station
and placing it on a goal. Calculus
equations were used on the embedded
Excel spreadsheet to manipulate the constraints for simultaneous multi-axis
motion. This "theatrical version" is a
composite of two views of the same animation, edited together using Adobe
Premiere.
