Abstract:

This paper presents a design tool of impedance controllers for robot manipulators, based on the formulation of Lyapunov functions. The proposed control approach addresses two cha\-llen\-ges: the regulation of the interaction forces, ensured by the impedance error converging to zero, while preserving a suitable path tracking despite constraints imposed by the environment. The asymptotic stability of an equilibrium point of the system, composed by full non\-li\-near robot dynamics and the impedance control, is demonstrated according to Lyapunov's direct method. The system's performance was tested through the real-time experimental implementation of an interaction task involving a two degree-of-freedom, direct-drive robot.
