This paper aims to develop the motion loading system taking into account the variable control impedance and human reactions. In the motion saving phase, a four channel bilateral controller with a micro-vibration is utilized for the purpose of obtaining not only position and force responses to human motion but also the human impedance. In the motion loading phase, the hybrid angle and the human impedance...
In this paper, an impedance control strategy is proposed for a rigid robot collaborating with human by considering impedance learning and human motion intention estimation. The least square method is used in human impedance identification, and the robot can adjust its impedance parameters according to human impedance model for guaranteeing compliant collaboration. Neural networks (NNs) are employed...
Compliance control using tactile sensor for robotic hands have been one of the major research topics. Most researchers use a variety of multi-dimensional force sensors with compliance control. In this paper, we replace traditional multidimensional force/torque sensor with one-dimensional pressure sensor. In order to achieve the effect of multi-dimensional sensor, we also propose a vector decomposer...
The compliant control of the robot is widely used in the Human-Machine Interface (HMI) and robot bionics. Because the system and the environment are mutually constrained, when the external environment changes, the control environment of the system will change with it, which deteriorates the control performance of the system. This article solves the problem of how to realize the compliant control with...
The design employs direct drive torque motor to achieve a robot single joint with active compliance based on the impedance model. In order to maximize the torque density, transmission transparency and backdrivability, the joint employs a quasi-direct actuator that a single-stage planetary gear is mounted on the motor's rotor. When robot interacts with environments, it's inevitable to change the stiffness...
In contrast to precise position control of the robot arms and manipulators, the force control has been studied recently. The robust position control does not allow the robots to share the same space with humans because the robots faithfully follow the position command, and it may lead to break the contacted environments. The impedance and compliance control could set impedances of robots so that the...
Transparency and stability issues have been a major concern for haptic tele-operation. Researchers in this area have already shown that a minimum refresh rate of 1 kHz is required to achieve smoothness for human perception in force-feedback experiments. This rate requires the highest priority for real-time applications to achieve transparent haptic tele-presence. As a result, this rate leads to a...
This paper aims to develop the method for identifying human and environmental impedances with information in the frequency domain by using bilateral control system. In the conventional method, a sinusoidal wave is added to the common mode of bilateral control system, however, this method cannot extract haptic information in frequency domain. Human impedances are assumed to change every moment, and...
Based on the lumped parameter theory of piezoelectric transducer, the mathematical relationship between mutual radiation impedance and surface vibration velocity distribution of the array element is established, and then the simulation experiments were carried out for a 5×5 planar array. The simulation results show that the influence of amplitude and phase caused by mutual radiation impedance presents...
Force regulation is an important topic in pick-and-place applications. To this end, a novel control concept for a setup consisting of two serially and co-linearly mounted axes is proposed. The position trajectory of the larger axis is tracked by a standard PD-controller. The feedback-law for the second and smaller axis mounted on the slide of the larger one is designed as an impedance control. A particular...

This study describes the design and realization of passive dynamic control for a manipulator. The control strategy is based on the idea that the shift in position and posture of an end effector attributable to an external force is regarded as the deformation of a robot. Control methods are constructed from the standard linear solid model, which describes the combination of plastic and elastic deformation...
In this paper, we propose the novel gait trajectory adaptation method applicable to an exoskeleton for strength augmentation. The proposed method consists of the online positive feedback trajectory adaptation method and the swing phase duration adaptation method. The swing test results of an exoskeleton prototype showed that the proposed method is more adaptable to the change of the trajectory amplitude...
For the purpose of enhancing compliance of robot joint, an impedance control strategy with new inner torque controller is proposed. Apparent inertia of the motor can be scaled down thanks to this new type of torque controller. Effects of different position (motor-side position θ and link-side position q) feedback strategies are explored through theoretical deviation, simulation and static stiffness...
Active exercise can improve the rehabilitation efficacy of the paralyzed patients, while we need to consider its safety. Impedance control takes the active compliance into account, providing a safe and comfortable training environment for the patients. However, the traditional impedance control has poor robustness, so it is urgent to enhance the adaptive capability of the system. This paper proposes...
This paper presents a novel method— asymmetric dual-user shared control method and makes a proof of the stability conditions of the novel method with time delay. Firstly, we model the novel dual-user shared control architecture with multi-dominance factors, considering the influence between the slave and masters respectively. Then, the system is divided into three paralleling subsystems, and the system...
This article demonstrates a novel robot applied in the Chinese Traditional Medicine clinical teaching area. As an effective therapy towards cervical spondylosis, the rotation-traction manipulation has been adopted extensively in clinical. However, medical malpractice may occur due to the lack of clinical experience. Therefore, it is crucial to design a simulation robot for practice purpose and evaluate...
Current methods in robot-assisted therapy are limited in providing predictions of the effectiveness of interventions. Our approach focuses on how robotic interaction can impact the distribution of movements expressed in the arm. Using data from a previous study with stroke survivors (n=10), we performed simulations to examine how changes in hand endpoint impedance would alter exploratory motion. We...
This paper deals with force control and co-manipulation. From a classical control scheme using three closed loops with an external force control, we derive two new control schemes: the first is implemented in order to control the effort applied in a rigid environment and the second focuses on a co-manipulation control in an unknown environment. The proposed control law takes into account the stiffness...
This paper presents a sliding mode hybrid impedance controller for complex interaction tasks. For easily implementing the scheme in embedded system, it is developed in discrete difference format. The hybrid impedance control is adopted since it is capable for both target impedance and force tracking. Then, the equivalent control based sliding mode control is introduced for robust to external disturbance...
