EMG-Based Control of a Multi-Joint Robot for Operating a Glovebox
نویسندگان
چکیده
This chapter describes a control method for a multi-joint robotic manipulator using Electromyogram (EMG) signals for operating a glovebox. The system uses a Probabilistic Neural Network (PNN) to estimate the user’s intended motion from EMG patterns, and generates a control command for the glovebox and robotic manipulator corresponding to the estimated motions. The user can therefore control the manipulator as well as various functions of the glovebox system through his/her EMG signals while performing some manual operations through gloves. With this system, the authors produce intuitive control of the glovebox with the robotic manipulator. The authors confirm the effectiveness of the proposed system with an experiment using the developed prototype.

CONTROL OF FLEXIBLE JOINT ROBOT MANIPULATORS BY COMPENSATING FLEXIBILITY
A flexible-joint robot manipulator is a complex system because it is nonlinear, multivariable, highly coupled along with joint flexibility and uncertainty. To overcome flexibility, several methods have been proposed based on flexible model. This paper presents a novel method for controlling flexible-joint robot manipulators. A novel control law is presented by compensating flexibility to form a...
متن کاملEnergy Dissipation Rate Control Via a Semi-Analytical Pattern Generation Approach for Planar Three-Legged Galloping Robot based on the Property of Passive Dynamic Walking
In this paper an Energy Dissipation Rate Control (EDRC) method is introduced, which could provide stable walking or running gaits for legged robots. This method is realized by developing a semi-analytical pattern generation approach for a robot during each Single Support Phase (SSP). As yet, several control methods based on passive dynamic walking have been proposed by researchers to provide an...

متن کاملA New Type-2 Fuzzy Systems for Flexible-Joint Robot Arm Control
In this paper an adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system based on interval Gaussian type-2 fuzzy sets in the antecedent part and Gaussian type-1 fuzzy sets as coefficients of linear combination of input variables in the consequent part is presented. The capability of the proposed method (we named ANFIS2) to function approximation and dynamical system identification is shown. The ANFIS2 structure ...
متن کاملPath Planning and Control of an Industrial Robot Used for Opening Tap Hole of an Electric Arc Furnace
The electric arc furnace (EAF) is one of the popular methods of steel production from steel scraps. The plasma arc is used in EAF to generate heat for melting scarp or direct reduced iron (DRI). The liquid metal is drained from the EAF through the tap hole. Nowadays, it is critical to use Automated/robotic tools for opening the tap hole with oxygen lancing. Because many workers have been blinde...
