System for controlling motion and constraint forces in a robotic system

摘要

Described is a system for controlling motion and constraint forces in a robotic system, the system infers constraints, at each time step, from a sensed state of robot/environment interactions. The inferred constraints are appended to known internal robot constraints to generate constrained dynamics. Properties associated with the constrained dynamics are determined provided to a controller. Inequality conditions associated with maintaining desired robot/environment interactions are also determined. A set of equality conditions based on the inequality conditions are then specified. The set of equality conditions are aggregated with any internal robot constraints to generate aggregated conditions that are provided to the controller. Joint torque commands are then generated for the robot based on the aggregated conditions and a specified task and null space motion command. Finally, the robot is actuated based on the joint torque commands.

1. A system for controlling motion and constraint forces in a robotic system, the system comprising:
one or more processors and a memory, the memory having executable instructions encoded thereon, such that upon execution of the instructions, the one or more processors perform operations of:
inferring constraints from a sensed state of robot/environment interactions;appending the inferred constraints to known internal robot constraints to generate constrained dynamics;determining properties associated with the constrained dynamics and providing the properties to a controller;determining inequality conditions associated with maintaining desired robot/environment interactions;specifying a set of equality conditions based on the inequality conditions;aggregating the set of equality conditions with any internal robot constraints to generate aggregated conditions that are provided to the controller;generating joint torque commands for the robot based on the aggregated conditions and a specified task and null space motion command; andactuating the robot based on the joint torque commands.
