Abstract

First, the dynamics of a manipulator is developed and a multivariable sliding mode controller for a manipulator is simulated. The controller's ability to compensate for nonlinearities and uncertainties in the dynamics of the manipulator is investigated. A method is presented for using sensor information to dynamically change the controller without adapting parameters in the model. Next, experiments are done on a single axis teleoperation system. A sliding mode controller is implemented in the system, and a method for evaluation and comparison between different controllers is presented. Finally, experiments are done that show the differences between the sliding mode controller and two linear controllers.
