This research focuses on how to control the robot easily and how to generate the better trajectories of the robot with multiple joints to implement weightlifting motion. The purpose of this research is to develop a multijoint robot can stand up successfully with an object. This research requires the operations with two items. First, when the object is lifted up slowly, the robot could stand up as easily as possible and does not tumble down. Second, the load applied on each joint should be as small as possible. In this article, a motion control method is proposed to evaluate the variations of the load torque and rotated angle of each joint with the geometrical constraints in the procedure and find the best algorithm to generate the trajectory of a weightlifting motion by a stance robot with repeatedly direct kinematics.
