Description

Synopsis :

                Inspired by the superior interaction performance of the human arm achieved through the regulation of its endpoint impedance, this paper proposes the use of Tele-Impedance control as an alternative method to unilateral position based control or bilateral force reflecting control during teleoperated tasks. The novelty of the proposed Tele- Impedance control method is that it provides the slave robot with additional information compared to pure position data traditionally sent to the slave robot during teleportation. This enriched command profile considers not only the reference position data but also the impedance command profile required by the particular task. This combined command reference (position and impedance) is finally executed from the slave teleoperated robotic arm by means of accurate local controllers. In the Tele-Impedance control scenario presented in this work, the human operator moves his arm in space to guide the remotely located robot to perform a pre-defined task (Peg in Hole in this work). The slave robot performs the task by tracking both the reference position profile (which corresponds to the end-point position of the arm of the human operator as measured from an optical position tracking system) and the end-point stiffness profile (estimated from the muscular activity of the operator’s arm) in real-time.
