用几何代数构建多臂协作任务空间,让复杂系统像单臂一样控制。

Cooperative Task Spaces for Multi-Arm Manipulation Control based on Similarity Transformations

  • 基于保角几何代数定义协同几何基元,通过相似变换抽象多臂系统。
  • 推导出解析与几何雅可比矩阵,实现与经典操作空间控制无缝集成。
  • 自然嵌入空域结构,可拓展次级控制目标,适合双臂/人形/灵巧手应用。

人类环境中的许多任务需要多个运动链的协同行为,例如搬运大件物体或实现物体在手中的精细操作。由于这些复杂系统通常具有大量自由度,其运动协调建模极为困难。本文基于保角几何代数,推导了多臂机器人系统协作任务空间的理论基础。通过协同几何基元的相似变换,我们建立了一种抽象框架,使复杂系统可被表示为与单臂系统直接对应的形式。进一步推导出相应的解析与几何雅可比矩阵,证明该方法可直接融入基于操作空间控制的经典控制技术。我们在双臂机械臂、人形机器人和多指灵巧手上,通过最优控制实验完成对期望几何基元的抓取,并在微分运动学控制下进行遥操作实验验证。结果表明,该几何基元天然包含空域结构,可用于引入次级控制目标。本工作奠定了该协作操控框架的理论基础,实验以抽象形式呈现,但为未来应用提供了明确方向。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Many tasks in human environments require collaborative behavior between multiple kinematic chains, either to provide additional support for carrying big and bulky objects or to enable the dexterity that is required for in-hand manipulation. Since these complex systems often have a very high number of degrees of freedom coordinating their movements is notoriously difficult to model. In this article, we present the derivation of the theoretical foundations for cooperative task spaces of multi-arm robotic systems based on geometric primitives defined using conformal geometric algebra. Based on the similarity transformations of these cooperative geometric primitives, we derive an abstraction of complex robotic systems that enables representing these systems in a way that directly corresponds to single-arm systems. By deriving the associated analytic and geometric Jacobian matrices, we then show the straightforward integration of our approach into classical control techniques rooted in operational space control. We demonstrate this using bimanual manipulators, humanoids and multi-fingered hands in optimal control experiments for reaching desired geometric primitives and in teleoperation experiments using differential kinematics control. We then discuss how the geometric primitives naturally embed nullspace structures into the controllers that can be exploited for introducing secondary control objectives. This work, represents the theoretical foundations of this cooperative manipulation control framework, and thus the experiments are presented in an abstract way, while giving pointers towards potential future applications.
