Abstract des Autors

'Catches win matches' is probably the oldest adage in Cricket. A fielder may only be required to take one catch in an entire game, but his success in taking that catch may have a considerable effect on the outcome of the match. Application of technology to sports equipment has a great impact on performance and has a potential to revolutionize the entire sporting culture. This paper presents an application of a redundantly actuated 2-DOF 3-UPS Parallel Chain Platform to boost the efficacy of providing catching practice drills by maintaining a degree of realism. The basic idea is to swerve a ball shot from a Ball Shooting Machine onto the platform, in random or desired directions by changing the orientation of the platform instantaneously as the ball hits it. We have formulated a method to calculate the velocity and angle of launch of the ball, required to provide practice drills for high catches and simulated the same.
