In this article we show how the model predictive path following controller allows robotic manipulators to stop at obstructions in a way that model predictive trajectory tracking controllers cannot. We present both controllers as applied to robotic manipulators, simulations for a two-link manipulator using an interior point solver, consider discretization of the optimal control problem using collocation or Runge-Kutta, and discuss the real-time viability of our implementation of the model predictive path following controller.

We consider the problem of bridging the gap between geometric tracking control theory and implementation of model predictive control (MPC) for robotic systems operating on manifolds. We propose a generic on-manifold MPC formulation based on a canonic
al representation of the system evolving on manifolds. Then, we present a method that solves the on-manifold MPC formulation by linearizing the system along the trajectory under tracking. There are two main advantages of the proposed scheme. The first is that the linearized system leads to an equivalent error system represented by a set of minimal parameters without any singularity. Secondly, the process of system modeling, error-system derivation, linearization and control has the manifold constraints completely decoupled from the system descriptions, enabling the development of a symbolic MPC framework that naturally encapsulates the manifold constraints. In this framework, users need only to supply system-specific descriptions without dealing with the manifold constraints. We implement this framework and test it on a quadrotor unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) operating on $SO(3) times mathbb{R}^n$ and an unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) moving on a curved surface. Real-world experiments show that the proposed framework and implementation achieve high tracking performance and computational efficiency even in highly aggressive aerobatic quadrotor maneuvers.
For many tasks, predictive path-following control can significantly improve the performance and robustness of autonomous robots over traditional trajectory tracking control. It does this by prioritizing closeness to the path over timed progress along
the path and by looking ahead to account for changes in the path. We propose a novel predictive path-following approach that couples feedforward linearization with path-based model predictive control. Our approach has a few key advantages. By utilizing the differential flatness property, we reduce the path-based model predictive control problem from a nonlinear to a convex optimization problem. Robustness to disturbances is achieved by a dynamic path reference, which adjusts its speed based on the robots progress. We also account for key system constraints. We demonstrate these advantages in experiment on a quadrotor. We show improved performance over a baseline trajectory tracking controller by keeping the quadrotor closer to the desired path under nominal conditions, with an initial offset and under a wind disturbance.
The application of robotic solutions to small-batch production is challenging: economical constraints tend to dramatically limit the time for setting up new batches. Organizing robot tasks into modular software components, called skills, and allowing
the assignment of multiple concurrent tasks to a single robot is potentially game-changing. However, due to cycle time constraints, it may be necessary for a skill to take over without waiting on another to terminate, and the available literature lacks a systematic approach in this case. In the present article, we fill the gap by (a) establishing the specifications of skills that can be sequenced with partial executions, (b) proposing an implementation based on the combination of finite-state machines and behavior trees, and (c) demonstrating the benefits of such skills through extensive trials in the environment of ARIAC (Agile Robotics for Industrial Automation Competition).
Model predictive control (MPC) is widely used for path tracking of autonomous vehicles due to its ability to handle various types of constraints. However, a considerable predictive error exists because of the error of mathematics model or the model l
inearization. In this paper, we propose a framework combining the MPC with a learning-based error estimator and a feedforward compensator to improve the path tracking accuracy. An extreme learning machine is implemented to estimate the model based predictive error from vehicle state feedback information. Offline training data is collected from a vehicle controlled by a model-defective regular MPC for path tracking in several working conditions, respectively. The data include vehicle state and the spatial error between the current actual position and the corresponding predictive position. According to the estimated predictive error, we then design a PID-based feedforward compensator. Simulation results via Carsim show the estimation accuracy of the predictive error and the effectiveness of the proposed framework for path tracking of an autonomous vehicle.
Human-robot interactions have been recognized to be a key element of future industrial collaborative robots (co-robots). Unlike traditional robots that work in structured and deterministic environments, co-robots need to operate in highly unstructure
d and stochastic environments. To ensure that co-robots operate efficiently and safely in dynamic uncertain environments, this paper introduces the robot safe interaction system. In order to address the uncertainties during human-robot interactions, a unique parallel planning and control architecture is proposed, which has a long term global planner to ensure efficiency of robot behavior, and a short term local planner to ensure real time safety under uncertainties. In order for the robot to respond immediately to environmental changes, fast algorithms are used for real-time computation, i.e., the convex feasible set algorithm for the long term optimization, and the safe set algorithm for the short term optimization. Several test platforms are introduced for safe evaluation of the developed system in the early phase of deployment. The effectiveness and the efficiency of the proposed method have been verified in experiment with an industrial robot manipulator.
