Two Link Harmonically Driven Robotic Manipulator

Title: Force Estimation Based Compliance Control of a Two Link Harmonically Driven Robotic Manipulator

The estimation of external forces exerted on a robotic manipulator with harmonic drive gearing without a force/torque sensor is considered. Manipulator dynamics, together with motor current feedback are used to estimate external joint torques, which are transformed into estimated external…
