Master-Slave Electric Cart Control System for Maintaining/Improving Physical Strength
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper explains the development of a newconcept three-wheeled electric cart that not only is a means of transportation, but also provides the driver with a way of getting some physical exercise. Based on an investigation of the physiological decline accompanying aging, pedaling was chosen to implement the function of maintaining or improving physical strength; and an ergonomically designed pedal unit was mounted on a cart. An interface board that handles inputs and outputs was assembled to simplify the design of the system. Finally, an impedance model was devised to describe the feeling of pushing the pedals, and a bilateral master-slave control system was built to control the speed of the cart. Experimental results on a prototype cart demonstrate the effectiveness of pedaling and the usability of the system architecture.

متن کاملHaptics force feedback based on current control loop for remote manipulation
This paper presents the development of a force control loop in a teleoperation system with master and slave robotic devices. The force control based on current control loop has been applied to a teleoperation open platform consisting on electric master device, hydraulic slave robot and equipment for data acquisition and control programming. This force control loop is applied in each master join...
متن کاملTransparent Bilateral Control Architecture by State Convergence for Telerobotics
This paper presents a bilateral control scheme designed to achieve the two main goals of a teleoperation system: stability and transparency. The control scheme allows that the slave follows the master, ant that the force displayed to the operator was exactly the reaction force from the environment. In addition, the interaction force of the slave with the environment is adapted to the master/sla...
متن کاملDelay-dependent stability for transparent bilateral teleoperation system: an LMI approach
There are two significant goals in teleoperation systems: Stability and performance. This paper introduces an LMI-based robust control method for bilateral transparent teleoperation systems in presence of model mismatch. The uncertainties in time delay in communication channel, task environment and model parameters of master-slave systems is called model mismatch. The time delay in communicatio...
متن کاملImplementation of Reliable Robot Control System for Nuclear Power Plant Manipulation
We implement a reliable robot control system for performing maintenance/repairing in nuclear power plant. Systems entered in extreme environments should have high reliability, since their failures cause much longer maintenance time. Our system is designed to have a threelevel hierarchical structure – slave/master/supervisory controllers – by considering the degree of radiation hazard. The slave...
