Equivalent Physical Damping Parameter Estimation for Stable Haptic Interaction

안정적인 햅틱 상호작용을 위한 등가 물리적 댐핑 추정

This paper presents offline estimation of equivalent physical damping parameter in haptic interaction systems where damping is the most important parameter for stability. Based on the previous energy bounding algorithm, an offline procedure is developed in order to estimate the physical damping parameter of a haptic device by measuring energy flow-in to the haptic device. The proposed method does not use force/torque sensor at the handgrip. Numerical simulation and experiments verified effectiveness of the proposed method.
