Coordination of human and mobile manipulator formation in a perceptive reference frame

چکیده
This paper presents an analysis and design method for human/robot integrated systems, especially for the coordination of human and robot formations based on a group of distributed mobile manipulators. The key for the human/robot integrated system is to create a common motion reference that can be understood by both human and the robots in the formation. First, the perceptive reference frame is introduced and the characteristics of perceptive frame are compared with time based reference frame. Next, the stability of the system based on perceptive reference frame is investigated. The applications of perceptive reference frame to multi-agents coordination in a formation, human/mobile manipulators coordination are then discussed. Based on the perceptive reference frame, the human can be naturally integrated into the robot formation. Human intelligence can therefore be integrated with the mobility and dexterous manipulation capability of the mobile manipulators to undertake complex tasks. The robot formation is therefore able to reconfigure and thus cope with unexpected events. Experiments have been used to verify the theoretical results.

متن کاملFormation Control of Multiple Autonomous Vehicles: Theory and Experimentation
The formation control of multiple vehicles using a perceptive frame is studied in this paper. The method is applied to multiple mobile robots. The controller design and lab experiments are shown in the paper. Some useful strategies of coordination are implemented in a perceptive frame by reference projections. The feature of the coordination is illustrated by experiments of three mobile robots.
متن کاملDevelopment Rotating Workspace Observer based on Novel Kinematics for Two-link Manipulator with Biarticular Actuator Coordination and its Application for Translational Motion
This paper proposes totally novel kinematics, statics and dynamics of a two-link manipulator and develops a control algorithm based on them which enables two-link manipulators behave more like human or animals. There are two main points: introduction of biarticular muscle/actuator coordination and utilization of the rotating reference frame instead of the fixed frame. These two points are also ...
متن کاملMaximum Allowable Load On Wheeled Mobile Manipulators (RESEARCH NOTE)
This paper develops a computational technique for finding the maximum allowable load of mobile manipulators for a given trajectory. The maximum allowable loads which can be achieved by a mobile manipulator during a given trajectory are limited by the number of factors; probably the dynamic properties of mobile base and mounted manipulator, their actuator limitations and additional constraints a...
متن کاملModeling and Compensation of the Dynamic Interaction of a Mobile Manipulator
A mobile manipulator composed of a manipulator and a mobile platform has a much larger workspace than a xed-base manipulator. While the on-board manipulator reaches out and performs manipulation tasks, the role of the mobile platform is to position the manipulator in a preferred connguration. In this paper, we study the eeect of the dynamic interaction between the manipulator and the mobile pla...
