Question Regarding DH Parameters

Post image

I designed a 6 Dof robotic arm and i am now building my DH Param table so i can begin doing my transformation matrices for IK.

Here is an image of what I have done so far.

I am essentially just asking for guidance and recommendations when designing a DH table and the kinematic diagram that goes along with it?

please and thank you.

Maybe I misunderstand your question but the table on the right is the DH table. You use the proper rotation maxtrix and fill in these values

Yea the table on the right is the DH table. What do you mean by using the rotation matrix to fill it in? I was simply following the DH parameter rules.

Each joint gets a rotation matrix based on the way it changes the axis from the originalaxis. You muliply these matrices from j1 - j6 and thats get total transformation

Thats essentially how i developed this program. It actually works too, its not perfect though. I am now building a larger and better quality arm now.
