Todays complex robotic designs comprise in some cases a large number of degrees of freedom, enabling for multi-objective task resolution (e.g., humanoid robots or aerial manipulators). This paper tackles the stability problem of a hierarchical losed-loop inverse kinematics algorithm for such highly redundant robots. We present a method to guarantee system stability by performing an online tuning of the closedloop control gains. We define a semi-definite programming problem (SDP) with these gains as decision variables and a discrete-time Lyapunov stability condition as a linear matrix inequality, constraining the SDP optimization problem and guaranteeing the stability of the prioritized tasks. To the best of authors knowledge, this work represents the first mathematical development of an SDP formulation that introduces stability conditions for a multi-objective closed-loop inverse kinematic problem for highly redundant robots. The validity of the proposed approach is demonstrated through simulation case studies, including didactic examples and a Matlab toolbox for the benefit of the community.

A Python module for rapid prototyping of constraint-based closed-loop inverse kinematics controllers is presented. The module allows for combining multiple tasks that are resolved with a quadratic, nonlinear, or model predictive optimization-based ap proach, or a set-based task-priority inverse kinematics approach. The optimization-based approaches are described in relation to the set-based task approach, and a novel multidimensional in tangent cone function is presented for set-based tasks. A ROS component is provided, and the controllers are tested with matching a pose using either transformation matrices or dual quaternions, trajectory tracking while remaining in a bounded workspace, maximizing manipulability during a tracking task, tracking an input markers position, and force compliance.
This paper develops a flexible and robust robotic system for autonomous drawing on 3D surfaces. The system takes 2D drawing strokes and a 3D target surface (mesh or point clouds) as input. It maps the 2D strokes onto the 3D surface and generates a ro bot motion to draw the mapped strokes using visual recognition, grasp pose reasoning, and motion planning. The system is flexible compared to conventional robotic drawing systems as we do not fix drawing tools to the end of a robot arm. Instead, a robot selects drawing tools using a vision system and holds drawing tools for painting using its hand. Meanwhile, with the flexibility, the system has high robustness thanks to the following crafts: First, a high-quality mapping method is developed to minimize deformation in the strokes. Second, visual detection is used to re-estimate the drawing tools pose before executing each drawing motion. Third, force control is employed to avoid noisy visual detection and calibration, and ensure a firm touch between the pen tip and a target surface. Fourth, error detection and recovery are implemented to deal with unexpected problems. The planning and executions are performed in a closed-loop manner until the strokes are successfully drawn. We evaluate the system and analyze the necessity of the various crafts using different real-word tasks. The results show that the proposed system is flexible and robust to generate a robot motion from picking and placing the pens to successfully drawing 3D strokes on given surfaces.
We propose a vision-based reinforcement learning (RL) approach for closed-loop trajectory generation in an arm reaching problem. Arm trajectory generation is a fundamental robotics problem which entails finding collision-free paths to move the robots body (e.g. arm) in order to satisfy a goal (e.g. place end-effector at a point). While classical methods typically require the model of the environment to solve a planning, search or optimization problem, learning-based approaches hold the promise of directly mapping from observations to robot actions. However, learning a collision-avoidance policy using RL remains a challenge for various reasons, including, but not limited to, partial observability, poor exploration, low sample efficiency, and learning instabilities. To address these challenges, we present a residual-RL method that leverages a greedy goal-reaching RL policy as the base to improve exploration, and the base policy is augmented with residual state-action values and residual actions learned from images to avoid obstacles. Further more, we introduce novel learning objectives and techniques to improve 3D understanding from multiple image views and sample efficiency of our algorithm. Compared to RL baselines, our method achieves superior performance in terms of success rate.
Inverse kinematics (IK) is the problem of finding robot joint configurations that satisfy constraints on the position or pose of one or more end-effectors. For robots with redundant degrees of freedom, there is often an infinite, nonconvex set of sol utions. The IK problem is further complicated when collision avoidance constraints are imposed by obstacles in the workspace. In general, closed-form expressions yielding feasible configurations do not exist, motivating the use of numerical solution methods. However, these approaches rely on local optimization of nonconvex problems, often requiring an accurate initialization or numerous re-initializations to converge to a valid solution. In this work, we first formulate complicated inverse kinematics problems as convex feasibility problems whose low-rank feasible points provide exact IK solutions. We then present CIDGIK (Convex Iteration for Distance-Geometric Inverse Kinematics), an algorithm that solves these feasibility problems with a sequence of semidefinite programs whose objectives are designed to encourage low-rank minimizers. Our problem formulation elegantly unifies the configuration space and workspace constraints of a robot: intrinsic robot geometry and obstacle avoidance are both expressed as simple linear matrix equations and inequalities. Our experimental results for a variety of popular manipulator models demonstrate faster and more accurate convergence than a conventional nonlinear optimization-based approach, especially in environments with many obstacles.

We present measurements of inverse spin Hall effects (ISHEs) in which the conversion of a spin current into a charge current via the ISHE is detected not as a voltage in a standard open circuit but directly as the charge current generated in a closed loop. The method is applied to the ISHEs of Bi-doped Cu and Pt. The derived expression of ISHE for the loop structure can relate the charge current flowing into the loop to the spin Hall angle of the SHE material and the resistance of the loop.
