METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR DESIGNING RECONFIGURABLE KINEMATIC DEVICES
Abstract: a method, system, and computer program product for designing reconfigurable kinematic devices. an example aspect is configured to: model two rigid stages of the device, assign at least one degree of freedom to at least one kinematic mode of the device; design at least one flexural rod; place at least one tunable flexure; assign a thickness to the at least one flexural rod; add mechanical details; and modularize the device for printing. a kinematic device configured to provide haptic feedback or motion control having at least two rigid stages, at least one kinematic mode, at least one flexural rod, and at least one tunable flexure.
