Deploying robots from isolated operations to shared environments has been an increasing trend in robotics for the last decades. However, the requirement of robust interaction in highly variable environments is still beyond the capability of most robots. We proposed to achieve robustness of various interactions by using the Fractal Impedance Control (FIC) and exploiting its non-linear stiffness to adapt to multiple cooperative scenarios, which is applicable to both manipulation and teleoperation applications. The proposed method was evaluated by a wide range of experiments: drilling, moving objects with unknown dynamics, and interacting with humans. The extensive validations demonstrated that the proposed method is very robust in presence of delays and reduced bandwidth in the communication link between master and follower. The results confirmed that the proposed method can enhance the robustness significantly and allow switching tasks freely between manipulation, human-robot cooperation and teleoperation without the need of extensive re-tuning of the controllers.
Robust dynamic interactions are required to move robots in daily environments alongside humans. Optimisation and learning methods have been used to mimic and reproduce human movements. However, they are often not robust and their generalisation is li
Background: Multi-articulate prostheses are capable of performing dexterous hand movements. However, clinically available control strategies fail to provide users with intuitive, independent and proportional control over multiple degrees of freedom (
Coordinated dual-arm manipulation tasks can be broadly characterized as possessing absolute and relative motion components. Relative motion tasks, in particular, are inherently redundant in the way they can be distributed between end-effectors. In th
This paper presents a planner that can automatically find an optimal assembly sequence for a dual-arm robot to assemble the soma blocks. The planner uses the mesh model of objects and the final state of the assembly to generate all possible assembly
In teleoperation, research has mainly focused on target approaching, where we deal with the more challenging object manipulation task by advancing the shared control technique. Appropriately manipulating an object is challenging due to the fine motio
