Abstract

This paper discusses robotic telemanipulation with Kalman active observers and online stiffness estimation. Operational space techniques, feedback linearization, discrete state space methods, augmented states, and stochastic design are used to control a robotic manipulator with a haptic device. Stiffness estimation only based on force data (measured, desired, and estimated forces) is proposed, avoiding explicit position information. Stability and robustness to stiffness errors are discussed, as well as real-time adaptation techniques. Telepresence is analyzed. Experiments show high performance in contact with soft and hard surfaces
