Pseudo-admittance is introduced as a novel bilateral telemanipulation system that is designed to mimic proportional-velocity admittance control on systems where the master is an impedance-type robot. The controller generalizes to systems with slave robots of the impedance or admittance type. Pseudo-admittance uses a proxy with admittance dynamics combined with direct force feedback from the sla...

Admittance control approaches show significant promise in providing reliable force-guided assembly. An important issue in the development of these approaches is the specification of an appropriate admittance control law. This paper identifies procedures for selecting the appropriate admittance to achieve reliable planar force-guided assembly for single-point contact cases. A set of conditions t...

In the paper the application of haptic joystick with magneto-rheological (MR) brake in control of electrohydraulic drive is presented. Two impedance and admittance control methods are shown. Basing on main equations describing electrohydraulic drive, the simulation model of an admittance control system is proposed. The results of chosen simulations are presented. Laboratory test stand is descri...

In this paper an adaptive compliant motion control is presented for either constant admittance or constant force mode of operation. From a desired trajectory of the admittance and virtual position in the task space, a virtual trajectory is generated to follow the desired admittance. We are talking about admittance because at the interaction port of the end effector the force is measured and a g...

Human–robot collaborative systems have the potential to dramatically change many aspects of surgery, manufacturing, hazardous-material handling, and other dextrous tasks. We are particularly interested in precise manipulation tasks, which are typically performed under an admittance-control regime, where the controlled velocity of a non-backdrivable robot is proportional to the sensed user-appli...

Virtual Prototyping with haptic feedback offers great benefits in the development process of actuated systems. We present a generic control scheme for the haptic rendering of actuated mechanisms, introducing the active admittance. It extends the conventional admittance control by modeling the actuation and the movable parts of the mechanism separately. This allows for an efficient iterative des...
