This paper proposes a novel swing constraint-based trajectory planning method for nonlinear overhead crane systems. To enhance the efficiency and security of the transportation process, some desired trajectories are designed to achieve the following merits: 1) leading the trolley to reach the destination sufficiently fast; 2) keeping the payload swing in an acceptable domain; 3) eliminating the residue swing when the trolley stops at the desired position. Specifically, the trajectories are divided into three stages. For each stage, the desired curve of the swing angle is directly constructed in accordance with anti-swing and zero-residual swing requirements, based on which the trolley trajectory is then obtained by analyzing the nonlinear kinematics of the crane system. An optimization mechanism is introduced to make intelligent compromises among the indices of transportation time, maximal swing angle, and so on. Both simulation and experimental results are provided to demonstrate the performance of the proposed direct swing constraint-based trajectory planning method.

A novel intermittent mechanism and low-impact deployment hinge based on intermittent mechanism are presented in this paper. This application is contemplated to lower the impact dramatically at the end of hinge deployment. The overall deployment process is described and the maximum impact force and angular velocity are derived. The effect of the intermittent motion mechanism on free spring deployable hinges is evaluated by indexes of maximum angular velocity and impact force. Cases are simulated to verify the mechanism design, and results show that the maximum angular velocity and impact force can be decreased by more than 90%.

This paper presented a novel compliant actuator used for lower limb exoskeletons. The compliant joint consists of a series elastic actuator (SEA) and parallel elastic (PE) unit. SEA has various advantages as the actuator of assistive exoskeletons, such as low output impedance, impact absorption, precise force control and high stability. We designed and fabricated a novel SEA as the primary joint actuator which is compact, adjustable and low-cost. Meanwhile an additional elastic unit is installed in parallel with the SEA to improve energy utilization by storing and releasing energy during motion cycles. An adaptive stable controller is designed to realize the joint following motion to a virtual limb. The algorithm can identify and compensate the undetermined contact stiffness between the joint output and the virtual limb. Finally, the performance of the actuator is evaluated through motion tracking and energy-conservation experiments. Preliminary results indicate the validity of the design and imply its potential usage in lower limb exoskeletons.

A novel features identification method is proposed for mobile robot indoor environment perception. In this paper, firstly, multi-dimensional data space is building based on laser scanner data, in which corner point is located by hypothesis testing theory. Secondly, line segments are obtained and localized by fitting method, which are previously estimated using probability model. At last, experiments verify the efficiency of proposed algorithm in indoor environment.

Virtual Reality(VR) presents a promising future in the field of rehabilitation due toits advantages brought tothe training process as is indicated in many articles and researches. In this paper, we describe a novel method in developing a virtual training environment for a 5 degrees of freedom(DOF) upper limb rehabilitation robot which has been designed tohelp provide assistance for patients whosurvive stroke but remain hemiplegic tocomplete rehabilitation exercise. The method involved utilizes ROS(Robot Operating system) and Gazebo(a multi-robot simulator) toset up an interesting virtual scene of daily life in a 3D world tofacilitate the patients tomove their affected arms with synchronous visual feedback and interact with the virtual training task. The control method of human model in the virtual world and the communication mechanism between the host machine which controls movement of the real robot and the master machine which runs the VR will be introduced. Finally, a virtual training environment containing reaching task setin a modern kitchen is presented.
