Measurement Results

Parallel kinematics with multi degrees-of-freedom (DOF), like hexapod-systems, are mostly used in applications where high demands on position accuracy are required and/or high accelerations are needed. Adequate control concepts are essential in order to achieve the desired dynamic response. This paper deals with a comparative study of two structural different control concepts applied on a parallel robot with six degrees-of-freedom. The first one is a decentral linear approach and the second one is a multivariable nonlinear approach. The two concepts are presented and implemented on an experimental hexapod-system. In order to verify the used dynamic model comparisons between simulation and measurement results are shown. Finally, experiments have been carried out to compare the control laws with respect to their motion tracking performance.

Abstract Force feedback is often beneficial for robotic teleoperation, as it enhances the user’s remote perception. Over the years, many kinesthetic haptic displays (KHDs) have been proposed for this purpose, which have different types of interaction and feedback, depending on their kinematics and their interface with the operator, including, for example, grounded and wearable devices acting either at the joint or operational space (OS) level. Most KHDs in the literature are for the upper limb, with a majority acting at the shoulder/elbow level, and others focusing on hand movements. A minority exists which addresses wrist motions. In this paper, we present the Wearable Delta (W $ \Delta $ ), a proof-of-concept wearable wrist interface with hybrid parallel–serial kinematics acting in the OS, able to render a desired force directly to the hand involving just the forearm–hand subsystem. It has six degrees of freedom (DoFs), three of which are actuated, and is designed to reduce the obstruction of the range of the user’s wrist. Integrated with positions/inertial sensors at the elbow and upper arm, the W $ \Delta $ allows the remote control of a full articulated robotic arm. The paper covers the whole designing process, from the concept to the validation, as well as a multisubject experimental campaign that investigates its usability. Finally, it presents a section that, starting from the experimental results, aims to discuss and summarize the W $ \Delta $ advantages and limitations and look for possible future improvements and research directions.

Error Statistic

One approach to tracking anatomical and robot joint motion consists of tracking the XYZ locations of multiple point targets that are attached to each of the moving segments and then computing the three translations and three orientation angles between adjoining segments. The complexity of such systems requires that we introduce a new conservative maximum error statistic to be used for evaluating the accuracy of 3D motion tracking systems. This paper addresses the various phenomena that contribute to measurement error when computing six degrees of freedom associated with the relative motion between the adjacent segments. The characteristics of these errors, common to many 3D motion tracking systems, were first determined by experimentation using one such system (MnSCAN). These and additional artifacts were then modeled in order to quantitatively evaluate their effects using the maximum error statistic. Based on these computer experiments, several relationships were identified that predict how each of these phenomena influences the predicted measurement of relative motion between bodies. These suggest where design emphasis should be placed in order to minimize the error in tracking the six degrees of freedom. The methodology and the conclusions based on these results can be applied to designing most six degree of freedom position and motion measurement systems.

The accuracy of two-tool machining on automatic lathes is analyzed. Full-factor models of distortions and scattering fields of the performed dimensions, taking into account the flexibility of the technological system on six degrees of freedom, i. e. angular displacements in the technological system, were used in the research. Possibilities of design and control of two-tool adjustment are considered.
