Passive and Active Assistance for Human Performance of a Simulated Underactuated Dynamic Task
نویسندگان
چکیده
Machine-mediated training of dynamic task completion is typically implemented with passive intervention via virtual fixtures or active assist by means of record and replay strategies. During interaction with a real dynamic system however, the user relies on both visual and haptic feedback real-time in order to elicit desired motions. This work investigates human performance in a Fitts’ type targeting task with an underactuated dynamic system. Performance, in terms of number of hits and between-target tap times, is measured while various passive and active control modes are displayed concurrently with the haptic feedback from the simulated system’s own dynamic behavior. It is hypothesized that passive and active assist modes that are implemented during manipulation of simulated underactuated systems could be beneficial in rehabilitation applications. Results indicate that human performance can be improved significantly with the passive and active assist

Robust Control of Underactuated Manipulators: Analysis and Implementation
Underactuated manipulators are robot manipulators composed of both active and passive joints. The advantages of using such systems reside in the fact that they weight less and consume less energy than their fully-actuated counterparts, thus being useful for applications such as space robotics. Another interest reside in the reliability or fault-tolerant design of fully-actuated manipulators. If...

In recent years, researchers have been dedicated to the study of underactuated manipulators which have more joints than control actuators. In previous works, one always assumes that there is enough dynamic coupling between the active and the passive joints of the manipulator, for it to be possible to control the position of the passive joints via the dynamic coupling. In this work, the authors ...
