Abstract :In this paper, we investigate the forward kinematics of dual rolling contact motion without sliding of one dual unit sphere $\tilde{S}_{m}^{2}$ on the fixed sphere $\tilde{S}_{f}^{2}$ along their dual spherical curves, which correspond to ruled surfaces generated by the straight lines in the real line space $\mathbb{E}^{3}$. We adopt a dual Darboux frame method to develop instantaneous kinematics of dual rolling motion. We obtain some new kinematic equations of rolling motion of the moving sphere $\tilde{S}_{m}^{2}$ with regards to dual unit vectors, dual rolling velocity, and dual geometric invariants. Namely, the dual translational velocity equation of an arbitrary dual point and the equation of the dual angular velocity on the moving sphere $\tilde{S}_{m}^{2}$ are derived. The equation represented by geometric invariants can be handily generalized to suit arbitrary dual spherical curve on $\tilde{S}_{m}^{2}$ and can be differentiated to any order.
