Book Haptics for Virtual Reality and Teleoperation

Download or read book Haptics for Virtual Reality and Teleoperation written by Matjaž Mihelj and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-14 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers all topics relevant for the design of haptic interfaces and teleoperation systems. The book provides the basic knowledge required for understanding more complex approaches and more importantly it introduces all issues that must be considered for designing efficient and safe haptic interfaces. Topics covered in this book provide insight into all relevant components of a haptic system. The reader is guided from understanding the virtual reality concept to the final goal of being able to design haptic interfaces for specific tasks such as nanomanipulation. The introduction chapter positions the haptic interfaces within the virtual reality context. In order to design haptic interfaces that will comply with human capabilities at least basic understanding of human sensors-motor system is required. An overview of this topic is provided in the chapter related to human haptics. The book does not try to introduce the state-of-the-art haptic interface solutions because these tend to change quickly. Only a careful selection of different kinematic configurations is shown to introduce the reader into this field. Mathematical models of virtual environment, collision detection and force rendering topics are strongly interrelated and are described in the next two chapters. The interaction with the virtual environment is simulated with a haptic interface. Impedance and admittance based approaches to haptic robot control are presented. Stability issues of haptic interaction are analyzed in details and solutions are proposed for guaranteeing stable and safe operation. Finally, haptic interaction is extended to teleoperation systems. Virtual fixtures which improve the teleoperation and human-robot cooperation in complex environments are covered next and the last chapter presents nanomanipulation as one specific example of teleoperation.

Book Haptics For Teleoperated Surgical Robotic Systems

Download or read book Haptics For Teleoperated Surgical Robotic Systems written by Mahdi Tavakoli and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2008-04-14 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An important obstacle in Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS) is the significant degradation of haptic feedback (sensation of touch) to the surgeon about surgical instrument's interaction with tissue. This monograph is concerned with devices and methods required for incorporating haptic feedback in master-slave robotic MIS systems. In terms of devices, novel mechanisms are designed including a surgical end-effector (slave) with full force sensing capabilities and a surgeon-robot interface (master) with full force feedback capabilities. Using the master-slave system, various haptic teleoperation control schemes are compared in terms of stability and performance, and passivity-based time delay compensation for haptic teleoperation over a long distance is investigated. The monograph also compares haptic feedback with visual feedback and with substitution for haptic feedback by other sensory cues in terms of surgical task performance.

Book Network based Haptic Systems with Time Delays

Download or read book Network based Haptic Systems with Time Delays written by Bogdan Cristian Liacu and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the last decades, virtual environments have become very popular and are largely used in many domains as, for example, prototyping, trainings for different devices, assistance in completing difficult tasks, etc. The interaction with the virtual reality, as well as the feedback force, is assured by haptic interfaces. Generally, such systems are affected by communication and processing time-delays, resulting in a deterioration of performances. In this thesis, a complete study of the existing methods, as well as theoretical tools and new solutions, are proposed for the haptic framework. First, a comparative study, based on the experimental results obtained on a 1-dof haptic system, highlights the advantages and drawbacks of the most common control algorithms ported from teleoperation to haptics. Next, the theoretical tools needed in analyzing the stability of the delayed systems in different situations, as well as the physical limitations of the experimental platforms considered, are examined. Besides the standard case of constant time-delays, uncertainties are also considered and modeled by different types of distributions (uniform, normal and gamma distribution with gap). In the sequel, for overcoming the drawback of time-delays, two new approaches are proposed. First, the use of Smith predictor-based control is addressed and a specific solution for haptic systems is developed and discussed. The main idea is to introduce into the Smith predictor the environmental forces by using the additional information from the virtual reality regarding the distances between the controlled virtual object and other objects in the scene. To overcome the loss of performances induced by using a fixed gain in the controllers for all situations (free or restricted motions), the second approach proposes a gain-scheduling Proportional Derivative control strategy depending on the distance until a possible collision. Both approaches are experimentally validated on a 3-dof haptic platform, under different scenarios elaborated gradually from simple situations - free and restricted motion, contacts with moving objects, to more complex situations - virtual box with fixed or moving sides.

Book A Stable and Transparent Framework for Adaptive Shared Control of Robots

Download or read book A Stable and Transparent Framework for Adaptive Shared Control of Robots written by Ribin Balachandran and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2024-01-29 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Robotic research and developments in computing technologies including artificial intelligence have led to significant improvements in autonomous capabilities of robots. Yet, human supervision is advisable and, in many cases, necessary when robots interact with real-world, outside-lab environments. This is due to the fact that complete autonomy in robots has not yet been achieved. When robots encounter challenges beyond their capabilities, a viable solution is to include human operators in the loop, who can support robots through teleoperation, taking complete control or shared control. This monograph focuses on a special form of shared control, namely mixed-initiative, where the final command to the robot is a weighted sum of the commands from the operator and the autonomous controller. The weights (fixed or adaptive), called authority allocation (AA) factors, decide who has more control authority over the robot. Several research groups use different methods to adapt the AA factors online and the benefits of adaptive mixed-initiative shared control have been well established in terms of task completion success and operator usability. However, stability of the overall shared control framework, with communication time-delays between the operator and the robot, is a field that has not been examined extensively. This monograph presents methods to improve performance and stability in shared control so that the possibilities of its applications can be widened. Firstly, methods to improve the haptic feedback performance of teleoperation are developed. Secondly, methods to stabilize adaptive shared control systems, while still ensuring high teleoperation performance, are proposed. The methods are validated on multiple robotic systems and they were applied in several projects, both in space and terrestrial domains. With the aforementioned contributions, this monograph provides an overarching framework to improve synergy between humans and robots. The flexibility of the framework allows integration of existent teleoperation and shared control approaches, which further promotes synergy within the robotics community.
