The human operator largely relies on the perception of remote environmental conditions to make timely and correct decisions in a prescribed task when the robot is teleoperated in a remote place. However, due to the unknown and dynamic working environ... Read More about A robot learning method with physiological interface for teleoperation systems.

Enhancing the force transparency of time domain passivity approach: Observer-based gradient controller (2019)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Singh, H., Jafari, A., & Ryu, J. (2019, May). Enhancing the force transparency of time domain passivity approach: Observer-based gradient controller. Paper presented at The 2019 International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA), Montreal, Canada

Passivity has been the most often used constraint for the stable controller design of bilateral teleoperation systems. Especially, Time Domain Passivity Approach (TDPA) has been used in many applications since it has been known as one of the least co...
