Abstract

Advanced application of remote manipulation or teleoperation will require kinesthetic feedback of force and torque information from slave robot to master hand controller. In outer space and terrestrial remote control, there is unavoidable time delay between master and slave. This study evaluates the performance of several candidate control laws for a single-axis testbed telemanipulation system in the presence of up to 1 second of time delay. Algorithms tested include communication laws based on passivity theory. Results indicated that task completion time was as much as 50% greater with the passivity based methods.
