Cartesian Impedance Control of Redundant and Flexible-Joint Robots

Cartesian coordinate control for redundant modular robots

This paper is focused on the kinematic control of redundant modular robots for trajectory tracing. Based on the geometric numerical inverse kinematic algorithm developed for modular robots, a new online control method is presented. In this method, the inverse kinematic solution can be optimized through constructing a weighted matrix. Following this approach, some fundamental interpolation algor...

Cartesian impedance control of redundant robots: recent results with the DLR-light-weight-arms

This paper addresses the problem of impedance control for flexible joint robots based on a singular perturbation approach. Some aspects of the impedance controller, which turned out to be of high practical relevance during applications are then addressed, such as the implementation of nullspace stiffness for redundant manipulators, the avoiding of mass matrix decoupling and the related design o...

Impedance Control of Robots Using Voltage Control Strategy Revisited

In this note, we show that the impedance control strategy proposed in the paper is not feasible from practical implementation point of view. Next, a robust impedance controller is proposed for electrically driven robots using Fourier series (FS). The fact that robots' actuators have limited voltage is also considered in controller design procedure. In comparison with other impedance controllers...

Cartesian Impedance Control of a UAV with a Robotic Arm

The dynamic model of a UAV with an attached robotic arm is derived in a symbolic matrix form through the Euler-Lagrangian formalism. A Cartesian impedance control, which provides a dynamic relationship between external generalized forces acting on the structure and the system motion, is then designed. The hovering control of a quadrotor, equipped with a 3-DOF robotic arm and subject to contact ...
