Dynamic modelling of robots: parameters identification (II)

Hi! In this post I will explain the method for obtaining a set of equations to be able to identify the dynamic model of robot composed by several links even in presence of closed loops. In the previous post I detailed

Force estimation with Luenberger-Sliding observers

Two lines are showed in the upper image of this video. In blue, the estimated total force and in red, the measured force. This video shows how the Luenberger-Sliding observer manages to estimate external forces during a compression task. Sliding

Dynamic modelling of robots with rigid links (II)

Robots with closed loops This is the second post about robot modelling. In it I explain the modelling of robots with closed loops. It is common of several manipulators, especially those ones with bigger payloads, to include a closed loop in the
