Direct training of robots using a positional deviation sensor
Abstract
A device and system for physically guiding a manipulator
through its task is described. The device consists of inductive,
contact-free positional deviation sensors, enabling the rcbot to
track a motion marker. Factors limiting the tracking performance
are the kinematics of the sensor device and the bartdwidth of the
servo system. Means for improving it includes the use of optimal
motion coordination and force and velocity feedback. This enables
real-time manual training of high-performance manipUlators. Multidimensional,
non-linear measurement equations for the sensor system
are developed, and their inversion described.
