Microsystems, and in particular microrobots, require the development of new advanced actuators with very small dimensions, simple mechanical construction and high reliability. This paper presents an overview on the problem field of the microactuation and various kinds of actuation principles referring to the use of microrobots. To provide a microrobot with both the transportation and micromanipulation capabilities, various designs of piezoelectric actuators can be used. The piezoelectric robot for handling of microobjects (PROHAM) is proposed. The robot is equipped with three piezoelectrically driven legs, whereby it can move at a speed of several mm/sec. A manipulation tool, e.g. needle, pipette, gripper or glue applicator, can be mounted onto the robot's platform. The tool is driven by piezoelectric effect as well, and movements with an accuracy of 10 nm are possible. This allows the manipulation of very small objects under a microscope. The PROHAM can be used e.g. for the manipulation of biological cells, microassembly or testing of silicon chips.

In process automation the control of plants with uncertainty or unknown parameters normally requires either a costly identification phase or an intensive fine-tuning of the controller. An easy adaptive fuzzy control is proposed which allows automatic controller tuning during operation with respect to desired closed loop behaviour. This adaptive control was added to the fuzzy kernel of an existing process automation system. Finally, experimental results of a three fingered robot gripper using this adaptive fuzzy control are presented.

In this paper the control architecture of the PRIAMOS mobile robot system is presented. It consists of four layers which integrate reactive and reflexive components in such a way that the robot can combine fast reaction to unexpected obstacles with predictive behaviour to known components in the environment. A solution for the problem of how to combine control layers which process information on different levels of abstraction and of increasing complexity is discussed. The reflexive part of the control architecture and the modification concerning the motion controller of the mobile robot which was necessary to apply the idea of reflexive navigation is described in more detail. The architecture presented allows motion tasks to be executed in partially unknown or changing environment in an efficient manner. Especially, the time-critical reflexive level is computationally less expensive than in previous approaches.

Hybrid position/force control for robotic manipulators is considered. The control is carried out in task coordinates. For the force control the non-linear variable structure controller is presented and investigated. The controller maintains the system to reach and remain at the switching hypersurfaces, consisting of internal coordinates of the force controller. The stability of the system and the existing of the sliding mode are analyzed by means of the second Lyapunov method. The developed non-linear force controller was implemented for the hybrid position/force control of a PUMA 200 manipulator. The experimental setup and obtained results are described.

The paper presents the design of a fuzzy controller to emulate spline curves for generating smooth motion trajectories. Spline models and a fuzzy control model are compared. Based on this comparison, a fuzzy control model is devised to make the robot continuously pass through the planned subgoals guiding the robot motion. By analyzing primitive movements along subgoals, the rule base can be developed. System structures are proposed for applying this fuzzy controller in the hierarchical motion control of robot systems. Its applications in robot arms and mobile robots are also presented.< >

Path generation execution and motion control for an omnidirectional mobile robot (vehicle) are considered. real-time path generation is based on the polynomial spline-interpolation with prediction of velocities of a spline-function. The mobile vehicle control is performed with the use of its kinematic model and digital PID-controllers of the wheels. The theoretical approach is illustrated by the obtained experimental results.< >

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.< >
