A novel control system is developed to improve the capabilities of robet hand performing tasks in a variety of environments. A joint impedance control strategy has been successfully implemented in the low level control of a highly integrated robot hand. At flint, a real time controller with DSP&FPGA-based multilevel control architecture is built. Then a current sensor of the single direct current (DC) link is used to measure and reconstruct the three phase currents, and a stable current signal is measured by optimizing sample instant. The experimental results of the joint impedance control show that the proposed method not only improves the effectiveness of contact environment performance, but also provides compliant interaction of robot hand with a person, which is very important for the development of friendly human robot of the next generation.

For a high-speed and high-acceleration planar parallel mechanism, a design for control (DFC) approach is proposed for the optimization of the mechanism structure. Several evaluation indexes of kinematics and dynamics performance are established for the object functions and constraints, and then a standard multi-objective optimization problem can be formed. The dimension synthesis is carried out by solving the multi-objective optimization with NSGA-II (non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm-II) algorithm. The final result shows that the mechanism with the optimized parameters can eliminate the systematic coupling and enhance the dynamic performance greatly, which provides a solid mechanism hardware platform for designing the high-speed control system.

Opticaldielectrophoresis(ODEP)has been explored experimentally with success in manipulating microscale objects in the last 5 years. However, not much theoretical analyses have been performed to understand its operating principles in depth and also determine its limitations as a tool to manipulate micro- and nano-scale objects. In this paper, we present our work on establishing an equivalent electrical model to analyze the important physical interactions when optically induced dielectrophoretic force is used to manipulate micron-sized polystyrene beads. Simulation results show that the ODEP manipulation of microbeads is frequency-dependent and that the electrothermal effect is negligible. Furthermore, the relationship between the frequency of the applied voltage and the maximum manipulation velocity of the microbeads obtained from simulation is consistent with our experimental measurements. In addition, simulation results also show that the minimum radius of a bead that can be manipulated exponentially decreases with respect to the size of the illuminated spot. For instance, when the illuminated spot size is 1 μm, ODEP can theoretically manipulate 100 nm beads - indicating that ODEP can be extended to manipulate nano-scale objects if the illuminated spot size can be significantly reduced.
We present a novel object detection framework that uses the local shape patches features combining the interclass global features information. A supervised local model learning architecture is proposed: a novel intere...

A new impedance controller based on the dynamic surface control-backstepping technique to actualize the anticipant dynamic relationship between the motion of end-effector and the external torques was presented. Comparing with the traditional backstepping method that has “explosion of terms” problem, the new proposed control system is a combination of the dynamic surface control technique and the backstepping. The dynamic surface control (DSC) technique can resolve the “explosion of terms” problem that is caused by differential coefficient calculation in the model, and the problem can bring a complexity that will cause the backstepping method hardly to be applied to the practical application, especially to the multi-joint robot. Finally, the validity of the method was proved in the laboratory environment that was set up on the 5-DOF (degree of freedom) flexible joint robot. Tracking errors of DSC-backstepping impedance control that were 2.0 and 1.5 mm are better than those of backstepping impedance control which were 3.5 and 2.5 mm in directions X, Y in free space, respectively. And the anticipant Cartesian impedance behavior and compliant behavior were achieved successfully as depicted theoretically.
