Multiple Uncertain Robot Manipulator Control for a Modular System
… However, designing effective distributed control strategies for modular systems presents unique challenges. Specifically, modular systems that consist of robot manipulators are subject to non-linear unknown terms as well as unknown effects. This thesis focuses on developing and designing a …

Towards Efficient Hydraulic Manipulator Control using Learning-Based Model Predictive Control
Large-scale hydraulic manipulators are notoriously difficult to control due to the prevalent nonlinear and complex dynamics. As a result, automation and control of such machines has only proceeded as far as tele-operation. Recently, research has explored the use of Gaussian Process Regression (GPR) …

Development of an AI-driven robotic manipulation framework
This paper introduces a manipulator control system that leverages state-of-the-art artificial intelligence (AI), advanced robotics, and the latest computer vision techniques to enable intuitive and universal robotic control across different robotic manipulators. The intuitive user command …

Incorporating thruster dynamics in the control of an underwater vehicle
… by the dynamics of the thrusters. Precise control, for example to perform repeatable survey or coordinated vehicle/manipulator control, should incorporate knowledge of thruster dynamic behavior. An energy-based lumped parameter model of the nonlinear thruster dynamic response is developed …

Effector Shape and Motion Optimization
… a user-specified objective. This simplifies manipulator control by encoding task-specific contact information in the effector's geometry. The key insight is posing these requirements as constraints in the effector's reference frame, preventing the need for explicit parameterization of the …

Collaborative control strategies for robotic manipulation
… must be made. <br/><br/>Slip detection and control is an area which can be applied to dual collaborating manipulators. With adequate sensing capabilities, two collaborating manipulators may hold an object without the use of dexterous end-effectors. This vastly improves the versatility of …
