In this paper, an approach is presented for designing a robot controller to integrate path planning and motion execution. Instead of following an exactly planned geometric path, which cannot be easily modified to deal with uncertainties, a robot realizes its motion under the guidance of a sequence of grossly selected crucial points called subgoals. A fuzzy model is used for on-line controlling the robot to pass through the subgoals smoothly. With the help of heuristics for optimal motion control, the rule base can be developed. Such a concept provides a control method in realtime as well as a possibility of integrating sensor data for the subgoal-guided motion.< >

Controlling multifingered robot hands makes high demands on the control algorithms and the speed of the control computer. The nonlinear friction, the impact problem and other plant uncertainties require a special kind of control and tuning of the controller. Some simple linear and nonlinear controllers for the Karlsruhe Dexterous Hand are presented and the results and advantages of the controllers are shown. Also, a new adaptive fuzzy controller is presented to overcome the time consuming process of fine-tuning the membership functions. Finally, a short glance at the hardware platform is taken in order to show the control system architecture.

Performing fine manipulations with multifingered robot hands makes high demands on the control algorithms and the speed of the control computer. Mainly nonlinear friction problems and plant uncertainties require intensive fine-tuning of a controller. This paper gives insight into the frictional behaviour of geared finger links. The behaviour has been approximated by a friction model. Considering the estimated system parameters two kinds of controllers are developed: a simple PD controller with switchable I-part and a PD-controller with a fuzzy friction compensation working in parallel. The results of both controllers are presented and compared in this paper.

In this paper a new control system for the intelligent force control of multifingered robot grips is presented. The multi-level system architecture combines both fuzzy-based and a neural-based control algorithms. After defining the fine manipulation problem fuzzy and neural controller are developed. The demands of flexibility and real-time control of the implementation of the control system are suited by a tailorable parallel computer concept. The basic ideas of the concept are to set up each processing element and the communication individually for its application

One of the main problems of present-day microsystem technology (MST) is the assembly of a whole microsystem from different micro-components. This paper presents an automated micromanipulation desktop station the main feature of which are piezoelectrically driven microrobots placed on a highly precise x-y table of a microscope. The microrobots can perform high-precise manipulations (with an accuracy of up to 10 nm) and the transport of very small objects (at a speed of several mm/sec). To control the desktop station automatically, a sensor system is provided for fine and for gross positioning of the robots, respectively. Apart from assembly tasks this automated station can be used, for examples, for handling biological cells or testing silicon chips.

The development of an advanced planning environment is described, which is especially tailored for the programming and simulating of complex assembly operations with multifinger robot hands. A new geometric-mechanic approach to the problem of planning grasp parameters for multifinger hands is presented, which considers the constraints of pick-and-place operations in manipulation and insertion tasks. The planning method is subdivided into two successive steps for (1) grasp point planning assertion object reachability and task feasibility, and (2) grasp force planning asserting object stability and grip security. The planning process is connected via a task concept and assembly specific language with the command executer of the planning system which controls both the motion emulation and force simulation.< >

Presents a neuro-fuzzy control approach for intelligent microrobots. Typical tasks of such industrial or medical robots are both exploration and fine manipulation, what demands task planning and motion/force control capabilities. For this kind of microsystems the authors investigate the system technical aspects of information processing. The concept for the control system architecture is based on the combination of a neural network approach for the adaptation of process parameters and a fuzzy logic approach for the correction of parameter values given to a conventional controller. A planning component deals with the determination of initial manipulation parameters. Together with a sensor fusion procedure and a supervising and reasoning subsystem this allows reliable operation of a microrobot.< >

Presents a control system for the intelligent force control of multifingered robot grips. The multilevel system architecture combines both a fuzzy-based adaptation level and a neural-based one with a conventional PID-controller that allows autonomous performance of fine manipulations of an object. Two kinds of fuzzy controllers are presented. They use a decision making logic which expresses the a priori knowledge about the grasp force behaviour inside the friction cones and the necessary reactions regarding the criterion for grip stability. A neural controller, based on a Hooke-Jeeves optimisation approach, has been developed as well. The neural control algorithm is implemented by a three-layered backpropagation neural network. The neural and fuzzy controllers can be used separately or in parallel. In the last case the neural controller can be on-line trained using the input-output information from the fuzzy one. A computer based simulation system for the peg-in-hole insertion task is developed to analyse and to compare the capabilities of both control algorithms. The demands of flexibility and real-time control of the implementation of the control system are suited by a tailorable parallel computer concept. The two basic ideas of the concept are to set up each processing element individually for its application and connect these elements with different communicational methods according to the applicational demands. As this happens before runtime the concept is called static flexibility and is implemented using a new mechanical computer structure.< >
