It has been almost two decades since the first globally tracking convergent adaptive controllers were derived for robot with dynamic uncertainties. However, the problem of concurrent adaptation to both kinematic and dynamic uncertainties has never been systematically solved. This is the subject of this paper. We derive a new adaptive Jacobian controller for trajectory tracking of robot with unc...

This paper presents a simple but efficient way to numerically calculate the inverse displacement problem of calibrated decoupled 6R serial robots. The method is iterative and works with any type of calibrated robot model, such as level-3 models, since it requires no algebraic computation and no resolution of high-order polynomials, only the computation of the forward displacement problem of the...

In force control applications of robots, it is difficult to obtain an exact model of a constraint surface. In presence of the constraint uncertainty, the robot needs to adapt to the uncertainty in external parameters due to the environment, in addition to the uncertainties in internal parameters of the robot kinematics and dynamics. In this paper, a visually servoed adaptive controller is propo...

in this paper, we consider the problem of efficient computation of the forward kinematics of a 6 DOF robot manipulator built to use in rehabilitation purpose. Forward kinematics problem (FKP) of parallel robots is very difficult to solve in comparison to the serial manipulators. This problem is almost impossible to solve analytically. Numerical methods are one of the common solutions for this p...

Automatic control of the robotic manipulator involves study of kinematics and dynamics as a major issue. This paper involves the forward and inverse kinematics of 2-DOF robotic manipulator with revolute joints. In this study the DenavitHartenberg (D-H) model is used to model robot links and joints. Also forward and inverse kinematics solution has been achieved using Artificial Neural Networks f...
