End-Point Control of Fast and Precise Macro/Micro-Manipulators
(1998)The Fourth International Conference on Motion and Vibration Control. ProceedingsThis paper presents a high performance macro/micro-manipulator architecture for rapid and precise positioning operations. The control approach si based on end-point position measurements in a limited range. Since the macro-manipulator can't be controlled precisely at high speed, due to structure and joint flexibility, the micro-manipulator is controlled to correct possible misalignments between the end-point relative to the target and ...Conference Paper -

The autonomous micro robot "Alice"
(1998)MHS'98: Proceedings of the 1998 International Symposium on Micromechatronics and Human ScienceOver the last years various mobile micro robots have been developed at different labs for research issues. Most of them have remarkable features but are handmade prototypes not suitable for large-scale production. This paper presents a micro robot design where major efforts have been undertaken in order to reduce costs and facilitate serial production, while improving the performances of the robot. The newly designed robot consists of ...Conference Paper -
