  2. 1. Identification, Diagnosis, and Control of a Flexible Robot Arm

    Author : Måns Östring; Svante Gunnarsson; Mikael Norrlöf; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Identification; Robot; Flexible; Diagnosis; Control; LQG; Recursive;

    Abstract : The most important factors in manufacturing are quality, cost, and productivity. The trend is towards lighter robots with increased mechanical flexibilities, and therefore there is a need to include the flexibilities in the robot models to obtain good performance of the robot.

  4. 2. On Robot Control using Range Sensors : with Special Reference to Active Uncertainty Reduction

    Author : Bernt Nilsson; Aarne Halme; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Robot Gripping and Docking; Gripper-Object Feedback; Non-contact Sensing; Laser Ranging; Flexible Arm; Mobile Robot; Probing; Dual Control; LQG-Feedback;

    Abstract : This thesis addresses the problem of positioning robots relative to objects in the surrounding work space. The object's position and orientation (posture) are measured using a non-contact sensor on-board the robot. For gripping/docking tasks the goal posture is specified relative to the object and not in a fixed coordinate system of the robot. READ MORE

  5. 3. On the Programming and System Integration of Robots in Flexible Manufacturing

    Author : Mathias Haage; Institutionen för datavetenskap; []
    Keywords : Industrial Robotics; Parallel-Kinematic Robot; Human-Robot Interfaces; Semantic Interfaces; Flexible Manufacturing; Sensor-Based Motion; Software Architecture; Modular Robotics;

    Abstract : Advanced manufacturing technologies and programmable machines such as industrial robots are used to increase productivity and quality for competitiveness on a global market. Development of increasingly flexible manufacturing systems has resulted in an increasing importance of software aspects, both on a system level and for efficient interaction with human operators.

  6. 4. Modeling and Control of Stiff Robots for Flexible Manufacturing

    Author : Isolde Dressler; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : To survive on a global market, small and medium size enterprises (SMEs) require affordable and competitive industrial automation for high quality flexible manufacturing. This thesis contributes to the development of robot concepts that fit the needs of SMEs. READ MORE

  7. 5. Flexible Robot to Object Interactions Through Rigid and Deformable Cages

    Author : Alejandro Marzinotto; Danica Kragic; Henrik Gordon Petersen; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; planning; control; perception; caging; cage; grasping; multi-agent; robot; robotic; knot; knotting; behaviour trees; behavior trees; action scheduling; RRT; Computer Science; Datalogi;

    Abstract : In this thesis we study the problem of robotic interaction with objects from a flexible perspective that complements the rigid force-closure approach. In a flexible interaction the object is not firmly bound to the robot (immobilized), which leads to many interesting scenarios. READ MORE
