Method and apparatus for reduced vibration of human operated machines

摘要

Tele-operated machine including a moveable structure and a control device functionally connected to the moveable structure for operation by a human operator. An input processor apparatus responsive to the control device generates signals to move the moveable structure in a reduced vibration fashion. In a preferred embodiment, the tele-operated machine is a crane. The operator can cause fixed length incremental movements of a load supported by the crane to be accomplished with reduced levels of vibration after the move is completed.
