物体パラメータのオンライン推定を伴う人間-ロボット協調作業のための物体認識インピーダンス制御

原文アブストラクト

Physical human-robot interactions (pHRIs) can improve robot autonomy and reduce physical demands on humans. In this paper, we consider a collaborative task with a considerably long object and no prior knowledge of the object's parameters. An integrated control framework with an online object parameter estimator and a Cartesian object-aware impedance controller is proposed to realize complicated scenarios. During the transportation task, the object parameters are estimated online while a robot and human lift an object. The perturbation motion is incorporated into the null space of the desired trajectory to enhance the estimator accuracy. An object-aware impedance controller is designed using the real-time estimation results to effectively transmit the intended human motion to the robot through the object. Experimental demonstrations of collaborative tasks, including object transportation and assembly tasks, are implemented to show the effectiveness of our proposed method.
