Collision Detection for Low-Cost Robot Manipulators Using Probabilistic Residual Torque Modeling

IROS 2025

With the advancement of robot manipulator technologies, developing custom-made low-cost manipulator arms has gained increasing popularity in the field of robotics. However, these low-cost systems often lack precise sensing and control capabilities, making reliable collision detection particularly cr

Compensating Aerodynamics of Over-Actuated Multi-Rotor Aerial Platform With Data-Driven Iterative Learning Control

RA-L 2023

The performance of over-actuated Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) is significantly influenced by aerodynamic effects, as they are subject to different airflow conditions. For those aerodynamic effects that are difficult to model but could occur repeatedly, Iterative Learning Control (ILC) has great p

A Fast and Efficient Attitude Control Algorithm of a Tilt-Rotor Aerial Platform Using Inputs Redundancies

RA-L 2022

Overactuated multirotor unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) usually consist of multiple tiltable thrust actuators. The controllers are mostly designed by regarding the thrust forces and actuator tilting angles as inputs of outer-loop position and attitude controllers, while formulating an inner-loop con

An Over-Actuated Multi-Rotor Aerial Vehicle With Unconstrained Attitude Angles and High Thrust Efficiencies

RA-L 2021

Fully-actuated multi-rotor aerial platforms are receiving increasing research interests for the capability of six degree-of-freedom (DOF) motions such as hovering at non-horizontal attitude angles. Existing real world hardware and experiments have demonstrated such capability for a limited range of

Nullspace-Based Control Allocation of Overactuated UAV Platforms

RA-L 2021

Multirotor copters with full six Degree of Freedom (DoF) maneuvering are often overactuated. The control allocation of overactuated UAV platforms can have an infinite number of solutions due to their redundancy. The most common allocation framework is based on Force Decomposition (FD), which provide
