This work presents the analysis and formulation for optimizing the dynamic model and parameter estimation of all the six joints of a 6DOF industrial robot manipulator by utilizing swarm intelligence to optimize two excitation trajectories for the first three links at the arm and the last three links at the wrist of the robot manipulator.…

A nonlinear adaptive robust controller is proposed in this paper for trajectory-tracking control problems of robot manipulators. On one hand, to effectively approximate the systematic dynamics, a simple time-delay estimator is first adopted. On the other hand, to minimize the control error, the controller is designed based on a sliding mode structure using the obtained…

This paper presents the input-output feedback linearization and decoupling algorithm for control of nonlinear Multi-input Multi-output MIMO systems. The studied analysis was motivated through its application to a robot manipulator with six degrees of freedom. The nonlinear MIMO system was transformed into six independent single-input single-output SISO linear local systems. We added PD linear controller…

The technical and vocational institutions are the key feeders for skilled human capital in the robotic revolution economy. It is essential to engage the students by creating new, affordable robotics at a fraction of the cost. This study presents the design and simulation of a six-axis robot manipulator specifically made for education and training. The…

This study investigates the synchronization issue of multiple robot manipulators in the presence of time delay. Since several previous works based on synchronization task neglect the communication delay, in this paper we develop a finite time stability based on a Lyaponov functional for synchronization of a networked robotic system where time delay exists during the…
