- Abstract
- This letter proposes a novel human-robot collaboration (HRC) control approach to alert and reduce the static joint torque overloading of a human partner while executing shared tasks with a robot. Using a preidentified statically equivalent serial chain model, variations of the centre-of-pressure and ground reaction force are calculated, and the overloading joint torques are evaluated in real time to initially alert the human about consequent injuries. An online optimization technique is implemented to adjust the robot trajectories facilitating the human to achieve more ergonomic body poses throughout the HRC task. The optimized human configurations are calculated by taking into account the human stability, the robot, and the human workspaces, and the task constraints, and illustrated to the human in real time. The experimental evaluation of the proposed technique is achieved in a human-robot load sharing task as a representative example of coassembly or transportation scenarios in industrial settings.
