Abstract
AbstractIn order to guarantee that grasping with robot fingers are safe when interacting with a human or a touched object, the robot fingers have to be compliant. In this study, a novel active and robust compliant control technique is proposed by employing an Integral Sliding Mode Control (ISMC). The ISMC allows us to use a model reference approach for which a virtual mass-spring damper can be introduced to enable compliant control. The performance of the ISMC is validated for the constrained underactuated BERUL (Bristol Elumotion Robot fingers) fingers. The results show that the approach is feasible for compliance interaction with objects of different softness. Moreover, the compliance results show that the ISMC is robust towards nonlinearities and uncertainties in the robot fingers in particular friction and stiction.KeywordsIntegral Sliding Mode ControllerActive Compliance ControlUnderactuated Robot FingersRobust Control
