Bimanual folding assembly: Switched control and contact point estimation
Paper i proceeding, 2016

Robotic assembly in unstructured environments is a challenging task, due to the added uncertainties. These can be mitigated through the employment of assembly systems, which offer a modular approach to the assembly problem via the conjunction of primitives. In this paper, we use a dual-arm manipulator in order to execute a folding assembly primitive. When executing a folding primitive, two parts are brought into rigid contact and posteriorly translated and rotated. A switched controller is employed in order to ensure that the relative motion of the parts follows the desired model, while regulating the contact forces. The control is complemented with an estimator based on a Kalman filter, which tracks the contact point between parts based on force and torque measurements. Experimental results are provided, and the effectiveness of the control and contact point estimation is shown.
