Abstract

In this paper we propose a set-point-generator (SPG) for indirect-force-controlled (IFC) manipulators, interacting with mechanisms, which impose narrow bilateral kinematic constraints on their end effector, like doors, cabinets and drawers. These mechanisms could also have dynamic properties, due to their inertia, friction and gravity, which demands to consider applied forces when choosing a set-point for the IFC. Neither the type of the constraint (linear, circular), nor required manipulation forces are assumed to be known.
