Controller Design for a Robot's Safe Contact on an Object

로봇의 안전한 물체 접근을 위한 제어기 구성

A robot manipulator is usually operated in two modes: free motion and constraint motion depending on whether the robot comes into contact with the environment or not. At the moment of contact, impact occurs, and sometimes, it possibly degrade the robot's performance by vibration and at worst, shortens its lifetime. In this article, a new proposed algorithm is described by introducing a command signal modification method on the basis of impedance control and a validity of the proposed algorithm is demonstrated by showing a simulation and an experiment.
