Abstract

The Arm cobot is a three degree-of-freedom manipulator intended for direct physical interaction with a human operator. The Arm cobot can operate as a passive device, such that the cobot sets the end-effector's allowed direction of motion, while the human operator provides all motive forces. Previous work with the passive Arm cobot involved displaying free motion and virtual paths and surfaces. This paper presents experimental results with a powered Arm cobot. In one experiment, the Arm cobot is commanded to track a user-defined trajectory, while in another experiment, we show an improved free motion controller.
