This paper investigates the direct adaptive control of nonlinear systems using RBFN(radial basis function networks). The structure of the controller consists of a fixed PD controller and a RBFN controller in parallel. An adaptation law for the weight adjustment is developed based on the Lyapunov stability theory to guarantee the stability of the overall control scheme. Also, the tracking errors between the system outputs and the desired outputs converge to zero asymptotically. To evaluate the performance of the controller, the proposed method is applied to the trajectory control of the two-link manipulator.

Recently, real-time visual tracking control for a robot manipulator is performed by using a vision feedback sensor information. In this paper, the optical flow is computed based on the eye-in-hand robot configuration. The image jacobian is employed to calculate the rotation and translation velocity of a 3D moving object. LQG visual controller generates the real-time visual trajectory. In order to improving the visual tracking performance. VSC controller is employed to control the robot manipulator. Simulation results show a better visual tracking performance than other method.

As usual systems, robot manipulators have also physical constraints for operating. It is a difficult problem that we operate manipulator in the minimal time under these constraints. In this pater, we solve this problem dividing it into two steps. In the first step, we find the minimal time trajectories by optimizing qubic polynomial joint trajectories using evolutionary algorithms. In the second step, we optimize controller for robot manipulator to track precisely trajectories optimized in the previous step.

The part of manipulators is normally studied with regularized environmental conditions. however, it is the most difficult that the part of AMR must be studied with uncertainty in the environmental conditions. The part of AMR has skelton, sensor fusion, path planning etc. This paper is the research of the local pass planning that gathers information about external environment using neural network from each sensors and designs the algorithm which can determine which correct direction the robot can find. As the result of the research, AMR has been able to drive similarly as if the expert does and has been able to observe it acting without any control.

In almost all the servo systems, especially for the robot manipulators and numerical control systems, there are resonance effects and nonlinear frictions which should be considered in designing servo controllers. In this paper to compensate friction and track the step-input without steady-state error, the original system is augmented with an integrator and employes $\mu$-Controller design method $\mu$-Controller design method enables to meet not only performance requirements but robust stabilities simultaneously. And there may exist a limit cycles due to interaction between integrator and nonlinear friction. With describing function method, the possibility of limit cycle is checked.

In controlling manipulators interacting with the external environment, an important role is played by the Force/Torque(F/T) sensors. Recently, a number of structures for F/T sensors have been proposed, and some criteria for their evaluation have been introduced. This paper presents a systematic analysis of F/T sensor at the design stage. A model of the F/T sensors, based on Stewart Platform structure, is developed on the basis of static and kinematic equation. The condition number defined by the kinematic velocity and force analysis of F/T sensor is used as a performance Index. Thus, 4 optimal structure factors of 6 D.O. F. F/T sensor are determined by using the condition number.

Control of multi-link robot arms is a very difficult problem because of the highly nonlinear dynamics. Decentralized control scheme is developed for control of robot manipulators based on RBF(Radial Basis Function) Neural Networks. RBF Neural Networks is used to approximate the coupling forces among the joints, coriolis force, centrifugal force, gravitational force, and frictional force. The compensation controller is also proposed to estimate the bound of approximation error so that the chattering effect of the control effort can be reduced. 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 two-link robot manipulator are included to show the effectiveness of controller.

Conventional robot manipulators actuated by motors with the speed reducer such as the harmonic drive have weakness in the load capacity, since the speed reducer does not have enough strength. To improve this, a new type of robot actuator based on the four-bar-link mechanism driven by the ball screw was constructed. Also, a new type of revolute robot manipulator composed of the developed actuators was developed. But, modelling errors occur due to the off-set from the nominal model since the exact modeling of the complex inertia variation of the four-bar-link actuator is very difficult. To control the proposed robot along the prescribed trajectory, a sliding mode control algorithm was applied with compensation function for the modeling errors. To show performance of the proposed controller, a computer simulation was performed, and its results was presented.

This paper proposes a new parallel manipulator fur plane motion, and then discusses on the workspace and kinematical characteristics of the manipulator. The conventional planar parallel manipulators have some disadvantages which are complex non-closed type direct kinematics, workspaces containing useless voids, and concave type border tines of workspaces. The proposed planar parallel manipulator overcomes the above disadvantages, that is, the manipulator has simple closed type direct kinematics, a void-free workspace, and a convex type borderline of a workspace. This paper shows the simulation result of the workspace as well as performances indices using a homogeneous inverse Jacobian.

This paper presents a two-time scale approach for vibration reduction of a high speed Cartesian manipulator. High speed manipulators would be subject to mechanical vibration due to high inertia forces acting on linkages. To achieve high throughput capability, such motion induced vibration would have to be damped quickly, to reduce settling time of the manipulator end-effector. This paper develops a two-time scale model fer a structurally-flexible Cartesian manipulator. Based on the two-time scale model, a composite controller consisting of a computed torque method for the slow time-scale rigid body subsystem, and a linear quadratic state-feedback regulator for the fast time-scale flexible subsystem, is designed. Simulation results show that the proposed two time-scale controller yields good performance in attenuating structural vibration arising due to excitation from inertial forces.
