The generalized momentum observer (GMO) is a widely used collision detection technique
for collaborative robots (cobots). However, a consensus amongst the robotics community is …

Many applications require mechanical systems to meet several performance specifications,
achieved through the suitable design of their mechanisms and controllers. The mechanical …

To ensure safe and accurate environment-robot interaction, a torque sensor is usually
mounted at the output of an actuator to detect and control the output torque. Deformation …

Although additive manufacturing is a relatively new technology, it has been widely accepted
by industry and academia due to the wide variety of prototypes that can be built …

Robot systems with both “intrinsic safety” and “high output” are expected to be implemented
in heavy-duty industries such asconstruction and manufacturing. But there are currently no …

Physically inspired models of the stochastic nature of the human-robot-environment
interaction are generally difficult to derive from first principles, thus alternative data-driven …

This paper presents a framework for a low-backlash, high-backdrivable gear based on
analytical modeling and simulation. Robot actuators typically combine an electric motor with …

Physically inspired models of the stochastic nature of the human–robot environment
interaction are generally difficult to derive from first principles, thus alternative data-driven …

Due to the aging society getting severe in recent years, robotic technology is growing faster
than at any other time. The revolution of robotic technology brings an amount of productivity …
