End effector admittance control of parallel manipulators without force sensor

A telemanipulation system lets a human operator manipulate an environment on distance, using a master and a slave device, which are connected by a bilateral controller that controls the master and the slave device and provides the communication between these devices. The master device is manipulated by the operator and these actions are...

Haptic Interface for UAV Teleoperation: Changing Haptic Control Device Stiffness based on Environmental Constraints

Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) teleoperators suffer from a reduced situational awareness, contributing to a high UAV accident rate. The implementation of a haptic interface is a way to provide them with more information about obstacles in the environment in order to compensate for this. Research focused on systems that actively help the...
