VISION SENSING FOR CONTROL OF LONG-REACH FLEXmLE MANIPULATORS
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents an end-point position measurement method for long-reach flexible manipulators using a landmark tracking system (LTS). The LTS is based on a computer vision system designed for the tracking of retroreflective landmarks. Hardware and software components of the LTS are described and the calibration procedure and sensing performance are discussed. Two methods are suggested to improve the performance of the current system.

Gravity-Compensated Robust Control for Micro-Macro Space Manipulators During a Rest to Rest Maneuver
Many space applications require robotic manipulators which have large workspace and are capable of precise motion. Micro-macro manipulators are considered as the best solution to this demand. Such systems consist of a long flexible arm and a short rigid arm. Kinematic redundancy and presence of unactuated flexible degrees of freedom, makes it difficult to control micro-macro manipulators. This ...

متن کاملAn Adaptive-Robust Control Approach for Trajectory Tracking of two 5 DOF Cooperating Robot Manipulators Moving a Rigid Payload
In this paper, a dual system consisting of two 5 DOF (RRRRR) robot manipulators is considered as a cooperative robotic system used to manipulate a rigid payload on a desired trajectory between two desired initial and end positions/orientations. The forward and inverse kinematic problems are first solved for the dual arm system. Then, dynamics of the system and the relations between forces/momen...

TThe uncertainty estimation and compensation are challenging problems for the robust control of robot manipulators which are complex systems. This paper presents a novel decentralized model-free robust controller for electrically driven robot manipulators. As a novelty, the proposed controller employs a simple Gaussian Radial-Basis-Function Network as an uncertainty estimator. The proposed netw...
متن کاملDiscrete-time repetitive optimal control: Robotic manipulators
This paper proposes a discrete-time repetitive optimal control of electrically driven robotic manipulators using an uncertainty estimator. The proposed control method can be used for performing repetitive motion, which covers many industrial applications of robotic manipulators. This kind of control law is in the class of torque-based control in which the joint torques are generated by permanen...
