Abstract
In this paper, a hybrid moment/position controller in task space is proposed for tasks involving a contact between a robot and its environment. We consider a contour-tracking task performed by a six DOF (Degrees Of Freedom) parallel robot. The task space dynamic model of the robot in contact with its environment, seen as a black box, is estimated by a MLP-NN (MultiLayer Perceptron Neural Network). The neural network non-linearity is treated using Taylor series expansion. An adaptation algorithm of the neural parameters resulting from a closed-loop stability analysis is proposed. The performance of the proposed controller is validated on the C5 parallel robot by considering two different environments: rigid and compliant.
