Abstract
Human-machine interfaces (HMIs) have received an increased attention during the past decades, specially due to the use of robots in many fields of the industry. In this paper, we employ a hand gesture recognition (HGR) system and the inertial measurement unit (IMU) integrated in the Myo Armband sensor as a HMI to control the position and orientation of a virtual six-degree-of-freedom (DoF) UR5 robot. As part of the HMI, this work also focuses on solving the trajectory tracking problem for the UR5 robot using two different control strategies: a minimum norm PID and a controller based on linear algebra. Both controllers are designed from the UR5 kinematic model. Finally, we test and compare their performance by computing their IAE performance criterion and the position errors obtained from two experiments: tracking pre-defined input trajectories and commanding the virtual robot by the HGR system plus the Myo Armband's IMU signals.
