This is due to nonlinearities and input coupling present in robotic arm. In this paper, a chattering free sliding mode control (SMC) for a robot manipulator including PID part with a fuzzy tunable gain is designed. The main idea is that the robustness property of SMC and good response characteristics of PID are combined with fuzzy tuning gain approach to achieve more acceptable performance. A PID sliding surface is considered such that the robot dynamic equation can be rewritten in terms of sliding surface. Then in order to decrease the reaching time to the sliding surface and deleting the oscillation of the response, a fuzzy tuning system is used for adjusting both controller gains including sliding controller gain parameter and PID coefficient. Controller is applied to two link robot manipulator including model uncertainty and external disturbance as a case study. Simulation study has been done in MATLAB/Simulink environment shows the improvements of the results compare to conventional SMC.","PeriodicalId":269516,"journal":{"name":"2013 International Conference on Individual and Collective Behaviors in Robotics (ICBR)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131394696","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To solve this problem, we have used a new approach based on a flatness concept. The 3D visual servoïng suffer from another major problem, is to determine the relative pose of the camera and the object. Generally, the pose estimation is made by correspondences between points of one image and points of the space that is the 2D-3D correspondence.

In order to overcome this problem, we propose a Fuzzy-tuned PID controller in which the PID parameters are learned, adapted and changed thanks to the fuzzy system.

In more, the model of the robot can contain uncertainties engendered the movement with sliding. An online identification, using NN was proposed to overcome these problems. The RBF NN is used to estimate the block formed by the interaction matrix and the model inverts of the robot. The considered images are described by objects given by four points.

Its main purpose is to find the contact points between the robotic hand and an object in order to grasp it efficiently. As the robotic hand has many degrees of freedom which induce a huge number of solutions, the search for the “best” solution became an optimization problem. The search of such a solution is conducted by a grasp quality measurement which will be called the objective (or fitness) function. This paper proposes a Multi-Objective Particle Swarm Optimization (MOPSO) approach to tackle the grasp planning problem. Its fitness functions are based in two different grasp quality measurements. The MOPSO approach is then tested in HandGrasp simulator with simple objects. The results will be compared with two simple Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) approaches and demonstrate its performance.","PeriodicalId":269516,"journal":{"name":"2013 International Conference on Individual and Collective Behaviors in Robotics (ICBR)","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123438797","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
