Feb 16, 2011 at 4:30 comment added Danny Kane Thank you for your reply. I will look into it. Yes, I believe the number of solutions is finite, given that data collected ($\mathbf{l}_i and $\mathbf{R}_i$ in the original equations) from the manipulator moving randomly. In longer words, if the manipulator is moving in some special singular movements, then it is possible that the system is having infinite solutions. But those movements are usually special (eg., moving straight, no rotation). I believe random movements are enough to avoid those singular cases. An analytical solution may give you an description of those movements.
