چکیده
In this paper we survey the development of the wave variable concept and examine wave-based teleoperation. We study the behavior of force reflecting systems under unknown but constant transmission delays, ranging from periods less than the human reaction time to several seconds. Passive transmission procedures guarantee system stability, but wave reflections and spurious dynamics may interfere with normal operation. Using wave variables for the analysis and implementation, and making appropriate design choices, a system with consistent and predictable behavior is constructed. This design methodology aims to create a virtual tool which accounts for the implicit limitations imposed by the delay. These developments also form the basis for extensions to wave-based prediction and application to variable delays, such as those inherent to Internet-based telemanipulation. KEY WORDS—teleoperation, force reflection, time delay, wave variables, passivity, impedence matching, virtual tool

This paper extends earlier results o n stable forcereflecting teleoperatron in the presence of significant time-delays t o the case, frequent in practice, where the transmission delays are themselves varying with t ime in a n unpredictable jashion. It shows that stability can be preserved through the systematic use of specially designed wave-variable filters. The resulting performance of the te...
متن کاملDoes the brain make waves to improve stability?
In many ways, roboticians and the human brain are faced with the same problem: How does one control movement from a distance? In both cases, delays in the transmission of information play an important role, either because the distances to be covered are long (imagine controlling a robot arm on the moon from a command center on Earth), or because the underlying hardware is slow (nerves transmit ...
متن کاملModel-mediated Telemanipulation Model-mediated Telemanipulation
This paper presents a user-centered, model-mediated approach to bilateral telemanipulation under large communication delays. Assuming that the environment is only slowly or infrequently changing, it mitigates user perception difficulties and allows stable motion and force interactions with the remote environment. Rather than directly sending slave sensory data to the user, the method abstracts ...
