Abstract:

This thesis describes a mechanical assembly system called LAMA. The goal of the work was to create a mechanical assembly system that transforms a high-level description of an automatic assembly operation into a program for execution by a computer-controlled manipulator. This system allows the initial description of the assembly to be in terms of the desired effects on the parts being assembled. Author
