Abstract
Existing cooperative manipulation methods for multiple manipulator systems usually assume that the grasp matrix and the desired trajectory of each manipulator are known in advance. In this work, distributed neural adaptive impedance control (AIC) strategies integrating fully distributed observers are proposed to remove both limitations. Specifically, two fully distributed finite-time observers are designed to estimate the actual and ideal states of the reference point without using global information. The estimates of the grasp matrix and the desired trajectory of each end-effector (EE) are then obtained by kinematic constraints and the estimates of the reference point's states. At the controller development, a distributed adaptive impedance model is established to achieve an adaptive trade-off between tracking performance and compliance. Then, distributed neural network (NN)-based tracking control strategies are developed to asymptotically realize the desired adaptive impedance dynamics in the presence of uncertainties. Additionally, a virtual energy tank (EK) is employed to interact with the impedance system to correct the adaptive impedance laws for system passivity. A simulation for four mobile manipulators tightly cooperative transport an unknown object is carried out to demonstrate the established results.
