Closed-loop Force Control for Haptic Simulation of Virtual Environments
نویسندگان
چکیده
Force feedback control is investigated for improving the quality of the haptic feedback in virtual reality applications. Advanced control design can increase the transparency of the haptic device at the haptic interface thereby increasing the realism of the simulation. Force feedback also enables the implementation of admittance control approaches heretofore considered the domain of large robotic platforms. The quality of the haptic interface is "rst quanti"ed, and the standard open-loop impedance approach to haptic control is reviewed. Dual-input control schemes with sensory force feedback are then introduced, and the resulting quality of the haptic interface is derived. A four-bar linkage example is used to illustrate the improvement in "delity realized with the various approaches. The tradeoffs encountered in moving to force feedback controllers for haptic applications are also discussed.

Force Control Law Design for a Five Degree-of-freedom Haptic Mechanism
In this paper the effect of a force control law in the transparency of a five degree-of-freedom (dof) haptic mechanism is investigated. The mechanism, which is a part of a training medical simulator for urological operations, consists of a two-dof, five bar linkage and a three-dof spherical joint. The force control algorithm is described and discussed. The open and closed loop schemes are compa...

In this study, a force reflection control structure is developed for the surgery training haptic system. In the surgery training haptic system, the surgical operation is cooperatively performed by a trainer and a trainee. The participation of each surgeon in the operation is established through their own haptic consoles. Although the operation is primarily performed by the trainee, the trainer ...
متن کاملDisturbance Observer Based Closed Loop Force Control for Haptic Feedback
Most commonly used impedance-type haptic interfaces employ open-loop force control under the assumption of pseudostatic interactions. Advanced force control in such interfaces can increase simulation fidelity through improvement of the transparency of the device, and can further improve robustness. However, closed loop force-feedback is limited both due to the bandwidth limitations of force sen...

Impedance-type haptic devices are being developed for applications requiring high output forces and large workspaces. The natural dynamics of such haptic interfaces can be significant enough to interfere with the user’s perception of the virtual environment both in free motion and in contact. In such cases, the haptic control algorithm must be able to reduce /alter the apparent dynamics of the ...
متن کاملToward Robust Passivity: A Passive Control Implementation Structure for Mechanical Teleoperators
In previous papers, a passive control implementation structure is proposed for mechanical systems interacting with physical environments. The proposed implementation structure enforces robust passivity of the closed-loop system, i.e. passivity is ensured in the presence of inaccurate force sensing and model uncertainties. In this paper, we conduct experiments to validate and demonstrate this ro...
