Reasons:
• Redistribute the unknown variables as even as possible.
• Take advantages of some special conditions such as three consecutive
intersecting joint axes or three consecutive parallel joint axes.

Direct Kinematics:
The position vector of the origin Q expressed in the end-effector
coordinate system is given by 3𝑞 = 0 0 0 1 𝑇 . Let the position vector of
0 𝑇
Q with respect to the base coordinate system be 𝑞 = 𝑞𝑥 𝑞𝑦 𝑞𝑧 1 .
Then,
