Regulation of 2D Arm Stability Against Unstable, Damping-Defined Environments in Physical Human-Robot Interaction

Fatemeh Zahedi, Tanner Bitz, Connor Phillips, Hyunglae Lee

IROS 2020poster

This paper presents an experimental study to investigate how humans interact with a robotic arm simulating primarily unstable, damping-defined, mechanical environments, and to quantify lower bounds of robotic damping that humans can stably interact with. Human subjects performed posture maintenance…

Variable Damping Control of a Robotic Arm to Improve Trade-off between Agility and Stability and Reduce User Effort

Tanner Bitz, Fatemeh Zahedi, Hyunglae Lee

ICRA 2020poster

This paper presents a variable damping controller to improve the trade-off between agility and stability in physical human-robot interaction (pHRI), while reducing user effort. Variable robotic damping, defined as a dual-sided logistic function, was determined in real time throughout a range of nega…
