cooperative object manipulation control of rigid-flexible multi-body systems in space is studied in this paper. during such tasks, flexible members like solar panels may get vibrated that in turn may lead to some oscillatory disturbing forces on other subsystems, and consequently produces error in the motion of the end-effectors of the cooperative manipulating arms. therefore, to design and dev...

we design a two-stage scheme to consider trajectory planning problem of two mobile manipulators for cooperative transportation of a rigid body in presence of static obstacles. within the first stage, regarding the static obstacles we develop a method that searches the workspace for the shortest possible path between start and goal configurations by constructing a graph on a portion of the confi...

This paper reports preliminary experiments in the development of our Augmented Micromanipulation System using the JHU “Steady Hand” cooperative robot system to augment single cell manipulation tasks. The need for robotic augmentation of biomanipulatuon tasks is discussed. The JHU "Steady-Hand" robot configuration for cell manipulation is reported. Augmentation strategies for stable cooperative ...

This paper reports preliminary experiments with a cooperative robot system to augment single cell manipulation tasks. The JHU "Steady-Hand" robot confguration for cell manipulation is reported. Stable force control laws for the "Steady Hand" 'are revisited. Preliminary experiments validating stable insertion of a micropipeffe in a mouse embryo are detailed along with formulation of vision based...
