Abstract:
This paper presents a gravity-powered passive onedof mechanism used to extend the workspace of a six-degree-of-freedom cable-driven parallel mechanism. The passive mechanism is mounted on the platform of the cable-driven mechanism in order to increase the useful workspace of the system. The application that stimulated the development of the mechanism is a system for capturing the light field of an object to reproduce the appearance of artefacts. The concept is based on a six-degree-of-freedom (6-dof) cable-driven parallel mechanism that is used to move a high resolution camera around the object. The geometry of the mechanism is optimized in order to cover a workspace defined as a hemisphere centred on the object.
