This paper discusses the manipulation of multiple objects by pushing. For the pushing manipulation, we propose the concept of equivalent center of friction(ECOF). By using the ECOF, we obtain the region of pusher’s center of friction causing desired relative motion at each contact point.

Studies in awake behaving monkey revealed that the activity in the primary cortex is correlated with kinetic parameters such as the direction of hand movement. However, the interpretation has been discussed for several decades. This paper describes the inherent problems of recording technique of single cell activity using electrodes. Recent discussions about M1 are also described.

It is well known that, in order to control a multi-fingered hand to grasp an object and manipulate it toward a prescribed orientation and position, there arises an ill-posed problem of redundancy of DOF (degrees of freedom) because the total DOF of all fingers that constitute the hand is larger than the number of total DOFs that can enough describe motion of the object. The Russian psychologist Bernstein also raised a similar question how the brain could control a system with so many different degrees of freedom interacting in a complex fashion. This paper introduces a new concept of “Stability on a Manifold” in an illustrative problem how to realize secure grasp and orientation control of a 2D object by means of a pair of 3 DOF robot fingers and show that the ill-posedness can be resolved in a natural way without introducing any artificial extra performance index.

In this paper, we derive a trajectory tracking control law for snake robots with passive wheels and active joints. We remove wheels of some links, and propose a control law based on dynamic manipulability to avoid the singular configuration. The robot can accomplish trajectory tracking of the head position without converging to the singular configuration. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed control law.

A snake-like robot is a typical example of robots with redundant degree of freedom. Using input-output linearization for only movement of the head of a robot, we can control the head speed as a desired one, but eventually the robot will come to a singular posture like a straight line. In this paper, we propose a control technique in which a physical index of horizontal constraint force is used explicitly. It is shown that the winding pattern with which the robot can avoid the singular posture is generated automatically and the constraint force is redeuced. Some disussion on a inclusion of a spring effect at each joint is also included.

“Caterpillar” is developed as a bio-mimetic multi-legged robot which can realize various walking pattern with respect to its environmental condition. The key techniques are: an autonomous distributed structure in the lower layer such as CPG and the vector field based coding method of desired body motion by weighted sum of basic motions. 3D dynamic simulations and experimental results show the effectiveness of our hierarchical structure.

The derived result indicates that the convergence of decentralized gait control can be significantly ameliorated by modifying its interaction dynamics between the control and mechanical systems to be implemented.

In this paper, we propose a new control method of Quasi-Passive-Dynamic-Walking. Concretly, we use the (k-1)th step’s trajectory as the reference trajectory instead of some trajectory which was made in advance and update the reference trajectory at every step. Then, after some steps, because of the special feature of Passive-Dynamic-Walking, the robot itself will make the ideal trajectory which is realized by passive dynamic walking. And the effectiveness of the control law is shown through simulations.

The proposed sensor is made of a kind of electric-conductive fiber, thus we can use it as a conventional bed spread. By making the sheet with the fiber in a matrix structure, we can detect the pressure distribution on it. This fact enables to acquire human vital signals such as breathing and heart beat. By a preliminary prototype, we show the basic properties of the proposed sensor.

In this paper, a designing method of the swing-up control for an Acrobot(acrobat robot) is proposed, which is used a real-coded genetic algorithm and a neural network. Firstly, the gene arrangement of one individual is assumed as one swing-up pattern, and one cell of the gene arrangement rates as the input signal of the actuator for every 1 step time. By using the genetic algorithm, the swing-up pattern for an Acrobot is generated. Next, the optimal swing-up pattern obtained by it is used as the teacher signal for the neural network. Then, the weights and structure of the neural network are optimized by using another genetic algorithm. The neural network is used as the swing-up controller.

In conventional works each issue has been discussed separately, but they are essentially inseparable because the physical structure and control strategy evolve interacting with one another. So this paper discusses both of two issues in our study on a modular type of transfer system, and proposes a coevolutionary method for our transfer system. Numerical simulations illustrate the effectiveness of our method.

This paper describes a high performance finishing system for metallic molds of PET bottles. A mounted abrasive tool is attached to the tip of an industrial robot through a force sensor. Its motion in tangent direction and contact force in normal direction are delicately controlled so that a resultant force among a motion friction force, viscous friction force, coulomb friction force and so on can track a desired value. In other words, the surface of the mold is polished by the resultant force. In order to avoid undesirable over polishing, the rotation of the mounted abrasive tool is locked or is controlled with considerably low speed, e.g., from 1 [deg/s] to 10 [deg/s]. This technique is applied to an open architectural industrial robot FS-20, so that a useful finishing system can be easily realized. Polishing experiments demonstrate the effectiveness and promise of the proposed finishing system.

Validity of this algorithm is illustrated by experiments.

To realize the pushing manipulation, we consider two kinds of ZMPs, i.e., the convensional ZMP and the generalized ZMP. To avoid the humanoid to tip over, we obtain the region of the generalized ZMP on the floor. We also show that the difference between two ZMPs corresponds to the magnitude of pushing force.
