Using Virtual Articulations to Operate High-DoF Manipulation and Inspection Motions

We have developed a new operator interface system for high-DoF articulated robots based on the idea of allowing the operator to extend the robot’s actual kinematics with virtual articulations. These virtual links and joints can model both primary task DoF and constraints on whole-robot coordinate...
