NSF/NASA AMM Workshop Outline State-of-art Historical perspective (nostalgic memories) Accomplishments in robot control Summary of last 21 years (WTEC study) Recent, specific contributions (somewhat biased) Challenges Panelists Discussion What are the intellectual problem areas we should address? Infrastructure? Can we can rally around these?

NSF/NASA AMM Workshop Robotics in the news this week WSJ, 3/7 “…teleoperation with time delays is a vexing problem in robotics…” “…because of the lag, it’s inevitable that the human operator will make tiny errors - errors that will in turn cascade into much bigger ones…”

NSF/NASA AMM Workshop Major Advances Academic/Government Labs Inverse dynamics: application of feedback linearization to serial robots, now routinely used in industrial manipulators (e.g., ABB) Time optimal control: along a path subject to dynamics, velocity and acceleration constraints, also used in industrial manipulators Adaptive robot control: model based adaptive control with global stability guarantee Nonholonomic control: control using time varying feedback or cyclic input, application of differential flat system theory, mostly applied to mobile robots and under-actuated robots.

NSF/NASA AMM Workshop Major Advances (Cont.) Flexible joint robot modeling and control: Application of feedback linearization to flexible joint robots, applied to some industrial arms. Teleoperation: wave variable based control for delay robustness. Guarantee stability, but user would feel delayed response. Order N simulation: Application of order N computation to forward and inverse dynamics. Essential for large number degrees of freedom, e.g., robot with flexible link, micro-robots. Hybrid force/position, impedance control: Simultaneous regulation of motion and force, applied to machining, assembly, haptic feedback, multi-finger control ?! ! !!!
