A Laboratory Experiment On Robot Contouring With Force Feedback, Shaheen Ahmad Mar 1987

A Laboratory Experiment On Robot Contouring With Force Feedback, Shaheen Ahmad

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Technical Reports

In this paper we describe a laboratory experiment which is part of a laboratory orientated robotics class taken by seniors and first year graduate students. This experiment is designed to introduce students to real-time robot control system hardware and software. The experiment attempts to fortify material covered m an introductory (non laboratory orientated) class on robotics. The issues covered by this experiments include: kinematics, dynamics, robot drive mechanisms, interfacing of sensors and force control aspects. Students were also required to learn many aspects of real time programming for control applications. We document this entire experiment so it may be reorganized …


Sensors: A Key To Successful Robot-Based Assembly, Shaheen Ahmad Mar 1987

Sensors: A Key To Successful Robot-Based Assembly, Shaheen Ahmad

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Technical Reports

Computer controlled robots offer a number of significant advantages in manufacturing and assembly tasks. These include consistent product reliability and the ability to work in harsh environments. The programmable nature of robotic automation allows the possibility of applying them to a number of tasks. In particular, significant savings can be expected in batch production, if robots can be applied to produce numbers of products successfully without plant re-tooling. Unfortunately, despite considerable progress made in robot programming [Lozano-Perez 83] [Paul 81] ;Ahmad 84] [Graver et al. 84] [Bonner & Shin 82] and in sensing [Gonzalez & Safabakhsh 82] [Fu 82] [Hall …

A Cordic-Based Pipelined Architecture For Direct Kinematic Position Computation, C. S. G. Lee, C. L. Chen Feb 1987

A Cordic-Based Pipelined Architecture For Direct Kinematic Position Computation, C. S. G. Lee, C. L. Chen

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Technical Reports

The kinematic equation of an fi-link manipulator involves the chain product of n homogeneous link transformation matrices and reveals the requirement for computing a large set of elementary operations: multiplications, additions, and trigonometric functions. However, these elementary operations, in general, cannot be efficiently computed in general-purpose uniprocessor computers. The CORDIC (COordinate Rotation DIgital Computer) algorithms are the natural candidates for efficiently computing these elementary operations and the interconnection of these CORDIC processors to exploit the great potential of pipelining provides a better solution for computing the direct kinematics. This paper describes a novel CORDIC-based pipelined architecture for the computation of …

Bias‐Dependent Photoresponse Of P+In Gaas/Alas/Gaas Diodes, Michael R. Melloch, C. P. Mcmahon, Mark S. Lundstrom, J. A. Cooper Jr., Q D. Qian, S. Bandyopadhyay Jan 1987

Bias‐Dependent Photoresponse Of P+In Gaas/Alas/Gaas Diodes, Michael R. Melloch, C. P. Mcmahon, Mark S. Lundstrom, J. A. Cooper Jr., Q D. Qian, S. Bandyopadhyay

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Publications

We report photocollection efficiency measurements of p + in GaAs! AIAs!GaAs diodes fabricated on films grown by molecular beam epitaxy, Both the zero-bias and bias-dependent photocollection characteristics can be explained by assuming that the band discontinuity between AlAs and GaAs is mostly accommodated i.n the valence band.


Recombination-Current Suppression In Gaas P-N Junctions Grown On Algaas Buffer Layers By Molecular-Beam Epitaxy, D. P. Rancour, M. R. Melloch, R. F. Pierret, Mark S. Lundstrom, M. E. Klausmeier-Brown, C. S. Kyono Jan 1987

Recombination-Current Suppression In Gaas P-N Junctions Grown On Algaas Buffer Layers By Molecular-Beam Epitaxy, D. P. Rancour, M. R. Melloch, R. F. Pierret, Mark S. Lundstrom, M. E. Klausmeier-Brown, C. S. Kyono

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Publications

n+pp+GaAs and n+pP+ GaAs/GaAs/Al0.3Ga0.7As mesa diodes have been fabricated from films grown by molecular‐beam epitaxy. The diodes made from films employing an AlGaAs buffer layer show marked improvements (a factor of 5 reduction) in recombination current densities. Deep level transient spectroscopy measurements moreover indicate that deep level concentrations are reduced by the AlGaAs buffer.
