Real-Time Modification Method of Position and Force Teaching Information in a Human-Robot Cooperative System

Abstract

This paper proposes a real-time modification method of position and force teaching information in a human-robot cooperative system. In this study, human motion is recorded using bilateral control to obtain position and force teaching information. When the recorded information is reproduced, a human operator can add an operation to modify the teaching information. Because of the ability to modify the teaching information, it is possible to create variations in the motion to accommodate environmental changes. On the other hand, without the modification by the operator, the original recorded motion is achieved. In the proposed method, the operator focuses on modifying the teaching information in order to realize the desired motion. The validity of the proposed method is confirmed by experimental results.
