Input-Shaping for Feed-Forward Control of Cable-Driven Parallel Robots

This paper deals with the use of input-shaping filters in conjunction with a feed-forward control of Cable-Driven Parallel Robots (CDPRs), while integrating cable tension calculation to satisfy positive cable tensions along the prescribed trajectory of the moving-platform. This method aims to attenuate the oscillatory motions of the moving-platform. Thus, the input signal is modified to make it self-cancel residual vibrations. 5 The effectiveness, in terms of moving-platform oscillation attenuation, of the proposed closed-loop control method combined with shaping inputs is experimentally studied on a suspended and non-redundant CDPR prototype. This confirms residual vibration reduction improvement with respect to the unshaped control in terms of Peak-to-Peak amplitude of velocity error, which can achieve 72 % while using input-shaping filters.

The eel-like robot

The aim of this project is to design, study and build an "eel-like robot" prototype able to swim in three dimensions. The study is based on the analysis of eel swimming and results in the realization of a prototype with 12 vertebrae, a skin and a head with two fins. To reach these objectives, a multidisciplinary group of teams and laboratories has been formed in the framework of two French projects.

A Vision-based Computed Torque Control for Parallel Kinematic Machines

In this paper, a novel approach for parallel kinematic machine control relying on a fast exteroceptive measure is implemented and validated on the Orthoglide robot. This approach begins with rewriting the robot models as a function of the only end-effector pose. It is shown that such an operation reduces the model complexity. Then, this approach uses a classical Cartesian space computed torque control with a fast exteroceptive measure, reducing the control schemes complexity. Simulation results are given to show the expected performance improvements and experiments prove the practical feasibility of the approach.
