Dual-Arm Coordinated Control Strategy Based on Modified Sliding Mode Impedance Controller

摘要

To meet the high-accuracy position/force control requirements of dual-arm robots for handling a target object, a control algorithm for dual-arm robots based on the modified sliding mode impedance controller MSMIC(tanh) is proposed. First, the combinative kinematics equation of the dual-arm robots and the unified dynamics model combining the manipulated object is established. Second, according to the impedance control motion model for the object, the desired joint angular accelerations of the manipulators are obtained, and the sliding mode controller based on the hyperbolic tangent function as the switch function is introduced to design the coordinated control strategy for dual-arm robots. The stability and convergence of the designed controller are proved according to the Lyapunov function theory. Finally, the operation tasks of the coordinated transport the target object for dual-arm robots are carried out in the simulated experiment environment. Simulation results show that the proposed control scheme can stably output the required internal force and achieve a high-precision trajectory tracking effect while reducing the periodic torque and joint chattering amplitude generated in the conventional sliding mode control algorithm.
