We quantify the dexterity of underactuated robot manipulators equipped with active and passive joints. We discuss the harnessing of redundant degrees of freedom in a robotic manipulator in order to keep it in service. We assume that the passive joints are locked at an arbitrary known position. There are three important dexterity measures: workspace volume, reachability, and manipulability. We discuss the workspace volume of a six degrees of freedom, three dimensional, redundant manipulator with an arbitrarily located passive joint. References- X. Xin, J.-H. She, T. Yamasaki and Y.
