This project designs, builds, and investigates a cable-driven robotic system. The system basically comprises of the robotic arm and the control unit. Feature point of the system is the use of the cable circuits in transmitting power to each robotic joint, which has several advantages. Some notable merits are the flexibility in the design of the robotic arm and the simplicity of the robotic controller. Together, the robotic arm is able to track the specified path swiftly and precisely within the designated workspace. This fulfills the fundamental requirement of the typical industrial robot. In addition, the project also aims for the study of many advanced concepts. Some examples are force control and vision systems which account for the environment uncertainties.
This project designs, builds, and investigates a specific haptic system that acts as the interface between the user and the virtual environment in the computer. The system comprises of two main components. The first part is the mechanism that is used for transmitting the force and motion between the user and the environment. The other is the haptic rendering engine. In order to interact with the virtual objects, the user creates mechanical contacts with the mechanism and starts maneuvering it to explore the virtual environment. Meanwhile, the processing unit will calculate the reaction force caused by the motion and the contact with the objects in real time. The values will be used to control the motors that eventually transmit force to the user via the haptic mechanism. The project makes uses of and develops knowledge in the field of haptics, force control, man-human interface systems, for example. Besides, the project can be modified to serve the research in tele-robotic system as well.
