Course description and aims

This course focuses on how to control a robot system. The basic of robot control is in motor position/force control, and design of motor reference requires kinematics and dynamics. The topics of this course include motor PD control, forward/inverse kinematics, statics, forward/inverse dynamics and compliance control, which are illustrated mathematically and dynamically.

Student learning outcomes

By the end of this course, students will be able to:
(1) Design a PD controller that satisfies the stability of the closed loop system
(2) Implement PD control algorism into PC control of a motor system
(3) Design a motor reference for a given trajectory of the end effector
(4) Design a motor torque that yields appropriate force in the end effector
(5) Design a compliance controller.

Keywords

PD control, Forward/Inverse kinematics, Statics, Forward/Inverse dynamics, Conpliance control

Competencies that will be developed

Specialist skills Intercultural skills Communication skills Critical thinking skills Practical and/or problem-solving skills

Class flow

This course is mainly organized lectures. Since each lecture requires the knowledge of the previous lecture, the students have to well review the previous lessons.
