Abstract

In this chapter, we present a Geometric Algebra algorithm for the grasping process of the robot Geometer (Fig. 8.1) constructed at Cinvestav, Guadalajara [62, 7]. We present both the Geometric Algebra algorithm and the algorithm in standard mathematics in order to highlight the difference in the symbolic descriptions.
