INTUITIVE OCU (Operator Control Unit) OF MFR (Multipurpose Field Robot) ON CONSTRUCTION SITE

چکیده
Recently, there has been a lot of interest concerning remote-control construction robot manipulation in hazardous operation environments including construction sites. However, there are problems involving the method of remote-control in unstructured work environments such as construction sites. In this study, an improved MFR system is described, which helps a human operator to easily install construction materials through an intuitive Operator Control Unit (OCU) on construction sites. The OCU consists of a force reflecting joystick and a vision system. The active compliance control and bilateral communication for strategic control is also described. In order to evaluate the proposed OCU, the installation of construction materials is simulated.

Workspace Boundary Avoidance in Robot Teaching by Demonstration Using Fuzzy Impedance Control
The present paper investigates an intuitive way of robot path planning, called robot teaching by demonstration. In this method, an operator holds the robot end-effector and moves it through a number of positions and orientations in order to teach it a desired task. The presented control architecture applies impedance control in such a way that the end-effector follows the operator’s hand with d...
