Towards robust hybrid control for two-arm robots

摘要

In order to perform complex coordinated tasks with a two-arm robot, some kind of robust hybrid position/force control is necessary. As a first step towards such a control scheme, the authors present mainly the results they have obtained in simulation with a single-arm robot. They have developed a simulator which allows one to test various control algorithms. In particular, they have tested a variable structure system for the hybrid control of a Puma robot. Several experimental results are presented in this case. Controlled variables for a two-arm system are also proposed.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
