Abstract

This paper presents a compliant control architecture for comanipulation in the medical robotics field. The kinematics and dynamics models of robots are described and its linearization by non linear feedback is implemented. The impedance control concept is introduced and representation in arbitrary frames techniques are presented. Various virtual walls restrictions to the robot end-effector are made using a proportional/derivative controller and an active observer (AOB) impedance controller. Some practical analyses and conclusions are made.
