A Novel Variable Impedance Compact Compliant Ankle Robot for Overground Gait Rehabilitation and Assistance
This paper presents the modular design and control of a novel variable impedance compact compliant wearable ankle robot (powered Ankle-Foot Orthosis, AFO) for overground gait rehabilitation and assistance mainly for stroke patients. Design of AFO, its construction, kinematics, working principle, actuation, control etc. are described. A novel variable impedance compact compliant series elastic a...
متن کاملDirect adaptive fuzzy control of flexible-joint robots including actuator dynamics using particle swarm optimization
In this paper a novel direct adaptive fuzzy system is proposed to control flexible-joints robot including actuator dynamics. The design includes two interior loops: the inner loop controls the motor position using proposed approach while the outer loop controls the joint angle of the robot using a PID control law. One novelty of this paper is the use of a PSO algorithm for optimizing the contro...
متن کاملSeries Elasticity in Linearly Actuated Humanoids
Recent advancements in actuator technologies, computation, and control have led to major leaps in capability and have brought humanoids ever closer to being feasible solutions for real-world applications. As the capabilities of humanoids increase, they will be called on to operate in unstructured real world environments. This realization has driven researchers to develop more dynamic, robust, a...
متن کاملNonlinear Stabilizing Controller for a Special Class of Single Link Flexible Joint Robots
Joint flexibility is a very important factor to consider in the controller design for robot manipulators if high performance is expected. Most of the research works on control of flexible-joint robots in literature have ignored the actuator dynamics to avoid complexity in controller design. The problem of designing nonlinear controller for a class of single-link flexible-joint robot manipulator...
متن کاملRobust adaptive control of voltage saturated flexible joint robots with experimental evaluations
This paper is concerned with the problem of design and implementation a robust adaptive control strategy for flexible joint electrically driven robots (FJEDR), while considering to the constraints on the actuator voltage input. The control design procedure is based on function approximation technique, to avoid saturation besides being robust against both structured and unstructured uncertaintie...
