When designing mechanical control system, the designer is inevitably led to face the problems of kinematics, dynamics, and control. These subjects are explained with two practical application case studies. One is a spatial motion simulator, and the other is an inertially stabilized system (ISS) for tracking radar. Both two applications have many similar and opposite aspects in the point of kinematics, dynamics, and control. For kinematics, motion simulator is a parallel kinematic structure and a non real time problem, but the ISS is a serial and requires a real time computation to compensate...
