Low Cost Computer Graphics Simulation of Basic Kinematic Linkages.

Smith, Donald A.; Jacquot, Raymond G.

CoED, v4 n3 p7-13 May-Jun 1984

Presents algorithms for the simulation and motion display of the three basic kinematic devices: (1) four bar linkages; (2) the slider crank; and (3) the inverted slider crank mechanisms. The algorithms were implemented on a Commodore-VIC 20 microcomputer system with 6500 bytes of available memory. (Author/JN)
