A Vision Based Feedback Mechanism For 6-Dof Stewart Platform, Utku Büyükşahi̇n Jan 2011

A Vision Based Feedback Mechanism For 6-Dof Stewart Platform, Utku Büyükşahi̇n

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Eyes are the most ubiquitous sensors of humankind. However, ``Vision Based Sensors" are not as common as what this fact would suggest. A survey of the previous work on image processing would reveal that the bulk of the research in this area have been conducted since the year 2000. These facts clearly show that image processing is the technology of our century, and is very open to further development. In this work, a system that combines a classical mechanism of the 20th century with the recent technology of the 21st century is presented and the design, theoretical background, the software …


Self-Tuning Fuzzy Pd-Based Stiffness Controller Of A 3 \Times 3 Stewart Platform As A Man-Machine Interface, Vasfi̇ Emre Ömürlü, İbrahi̇m Yildiz Jan 2011

Self-Tuning Fuzzy Pd-Based Stiffness Controller Of A 3 \Times 3 Stewart Platform As A Man-Machine Interface, Vasfi̇ Emre Ömürlü, İbrahi̇m Yildiz

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Stewart Platform (SP) mechanism has wide application area on aerospace and manufacturing industry with its nonlinear structure allowing spatial motion capabilities. However, nonlinearities in the structure of the mechanism lead to complications in the dynamics of the system and result in complex control algorithms for dexterity in motion and force/torque feedback. Therefore, this paper aims to represent stiffness control by means of independent joint fuzzy-PD control algorithm with gain scheduling on an experimental 3 \times 3 SP parallel robotic mechanism to be used as a fly-by-wire flight control unit. Model and real system responses are compared employing stiffness control so …
