Abstract This chapter reviews selected topics related to kinematics, dynamics and control of free-floating robotic systems. Free-floating robots do not have a fixed base, and this fact must be accounted for when developing kinematic and dynamic models. Moreover, the configuration of the base is given by the Special Euclidean Group SE(3), and hence there exist no minimum set of generalized coordinates that are globally defined. Jacobian based methods for kinematic solutions will be reviewed, and equations of motion will be presented and discussed. In terms of control, there are several interesting aspects that will be discussed. One problem is coordination of motion of vehicle and manipulator, another is in the case of underactuation where nonholonomic phenomena may occur, and possibly smooth stabilizability may be precluded due to Brockett's result.
