Robot manipulator has highly nonlinear dynamics. Therefore the control of multi-link robot arms is a challenging and difficult problem. In this paper an independent joint adaptive fuzzy sliding mode scheme is developed leer control of robot manipulators. The proposed scheme does not require an accurate manipulator dynamic model, yet it guarantees asymptotic trajectory tracking despite gross robot parameter variations. Numerical simulation for independent joint control of a 3-axis PUMA arm will also be included.

Control of multi-link robot arms is a challenging and difficult problem because of the highly nonlinear dynamics. Independent joint adaptive scheme is developed for control of robot manipulators based on Sugeno-type of fuzzy logic. Fuzzy logic system is used to approximate the coupling forces among the joints, coriolis force, centrifugal force, gravitational force, and frictional forces. The proposed scheme does not require an accurate manipulator dynamic, and it is proved that closed-loop system is asymptotic stable despite the gross robot parameter variations. Numerical simulations for three-axis PUMA robot are included to show the effectiveness of controller.

In a independent joint servo control of robots, the performance of the control is influenced greatly by the joint interaction torques including Coriolis and centrifugal forces. These act as disturbance torques to the control system. As the speed of the robot increases, the effect of this disturbance torque increase, and makes the high speed - high precision control more difficult to achieve. In this paper, a solution to the optimal path placement problem is presented that minimizes the joint disturbance torque during a straight line motion. The proposed method is illustrated using computer simulation. The proposed solution method can be applied to the class of robots that are controlled by independent joint servo control, which includes the vast majority of industrial robots.

직접구동 로봇의 특성과 문제점에 대하여 기술하고 기계설계와 제어방식에 의한 대책 및 개선 방향을 해설하였다. 직접구동 로봇은 고속, 고정밀도, 토크제어의 가능 등 여러 가지 좋은 잠재 력을 가지고 있는 반면 자체 중량에 비하여 가반중량이 작고 관절 간의 간섭 및 비선형력이 크며 부하감도가 높은 등의 문제점이 있음을 나타내고 모터의 배치나 기구의 변환에 의해 이와 같은 문제점을 어느 정도 개선할 수 있음을 보였다. 또한 비간섭 . 자세독립제어, 토크피드백 제어에 의하여 직접구동의 장점을 충분히 활용하기 위해서는 아직도 해결하여야 할 문제가 많다. 그 중에 무엇보다도 중요한 것은 소형 경량이면서 높은 토크를 발생시킬 수 있는 모터의 개발이다. 최근 초음파 모터의 연구개발이 활발한데 이를 이용한 직접구동 모터의 개발이 기대된다.

A majority of industrial robots are controlled by a simple joint servo control of joint actuators. In this type of control, the performance of control is greatly influenced by the joint interaction torques including Coriolis and centrifugal forces, which act as disturbance torques to the control system. As the speed of the robot increases, the effect of this disturbance torque increases, and hence makes the high speed - high precision control more difficult to achieve. In this paper, the joint disturbance torque of robots is analyzed. The joint disturbance torque is defined using the coefficients of dynamic equation of motion, and for the case of a 2 DOF planar robot, the conditions for the minimum and maximum joint disturbance torques are identified, and the effect of link parameters and joint variables on the joint disturbance torque are examined. Then, a solution to the optimal path placement problem is propose that minimizes the joint disturbance torque during a straight line motion. The proposed method is illustrated using computer simulation. The proposed solution method can be applied to a class of robots that are controlled by independent joint servo control, which includes the vast majority of industrial robots.

There are many tasks which require robotic manipulators interaction with environment. It consists of three control problems, i.e., position control, impact control and force control. The position control means the way of reaching to the environment. The moment of touching to the environment yields the impact control problem and the force control is to maintain the desired force trajectory after the impact with the environment. These three control problems occur in sequence, so each control algorithm can be developed independently. Especially for redundant manipulators, each of these three control problems has been important independent research topic. For example, joint torque minimization and impulse minimization are typical techniques for such control problems. The three control problems are considered as a single task in this paper. The position control strategy is developed to improve the performance of the task, i.e., minimization of the individual joint torques and impulse. Therefore, initial conditions of the impact control problem are optimized at the previous position control algorithm. Such a control strategy yields improved result of the impact control. Similarly, the initial conditions for the force control problem are indirectly optimized by the previous position control and impact control strategies. The force control algorithm uses the individual joint torque minimization concept. It also minimizes the force disturbances. The simulation results show the proposed control strategy works well.

본 연구에서는 고 성능 마이크로프로세서를 이용한 공기조형물의 관절 구동과 센서의 환경 인식에 능동적으로 대처할 수 있는 시스템을 연구하였다. 객체기반의 공기조형물용 모션제어 시스템은 단일 제어기로의 역할보다 시스템 구성요소로서의 역할이 매우 중요해지므로 시스템 전체의 제어기로 확장시켜 사용하는 방향으로 전환되어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 시스템의 구동과 환경에 능동적으로 대처할 수 있는 객체기반 공기조형물을 연구하였다. 모터제어 방법에 있어 CAN(Controller Area Network) 네트워크를 방식을 통하여 제어를 수행하는 분산제어방식으로 수행하였다. CAN방식은 모션제어 시스템에 도입하여 주 제어기가 하위 제어기에 네트워크를 통하여 명령을 내리며 하위제어기는 주어진 위치 및 속도명령에 대하여 분산적으로 제어를 수행하였다. 따라서 CAN방식을 사용하여 각 제어기의 독립성과 처리속도를 증대시키고 공기조형물의 기능별 확장이 용이하도록 구성하였다. 제어기의 환경은 시스템을 총체적으로 조화롭게 제어할 수 있는 시스템으로의 역할이 중요시되어 이에 맞도록 설계방안을 연구하였다.

This paper deals with implementation of network for distributed control system of a humanoid robot ISHURO(Inha Semyung Humanoid Robot). A humanoid robot needs much degree of freedom structurally and much data for having flexible movement. To realize such a humanoid robot, distributed control method is preferred to the centralized one since it gives a compactness, modularity and flexibility for the controllers. For organizing distributed control system of a humanoid robot, a control processor on a board is needed to individually control the joint motor and communication technology between the processors is required to transmit its information within control time. The processor is DSP-based processor and includes CAN network on a chip. It shares the computational load such as monitoring the sensor information and controlling the actuator between each of modules. In this paper, the communication architecture is suggested and its message protocol are discussed including message structure, time consumption for transmission, and controller structure at the view of distributed control for a humanoid robot. All of the sequence are simulated with Matlab and then verified with real walking experiment by ISHURO.

In this paper for an object grasped by a robot hand to work in stiffness control domain we first investigate the number of fingers for successful stiffness modulation in the object operational space. Next we propose a new compliance control method for robot hands which consist of two steps. RIFDS(Resolved Inter-Finger Decoupling Solver) is to decompose the desired compliance characteristic specified in the op-erational space into the compliance characteristic in the fingertip space without inter-finger coupling and RIJDS(Resolved Inter-Joint Decoupling Solver) is to decompose the fingertip space without inter-finger coupling and RIJDS(Resolved inter-Joint Decoupling Solver) is to decompose the compliance characteristic in the finger-tip space into the compliance characteristic given in the joint space without inter-joint coupling. Based on the analysis results the finger structure should be biominetic in the sense that either kniematic redundancy or force redundancy are required to implement the proposed compliance control scheme, Five-bar fingered robot hands are used as an illustrative example to implement the proposed compliance control method. To show the effectiveness of the proposed compliance control method simulations are performed for two-fingered and three-fingered robot hands.
