Robot, robot control device, robot control method, and robot control program

This describes a robot with a jointed arm designed to handle objects. Its control system tracks the arm's position and, when the robot grips or releases an object, it intelligently adjusts how it calculates the forces needed to move the arm. It can specifically change how it accounts for gravity and the arm's resistance to motion separately, allowing for more precise control, particularly by adjusting only the inertia when the arm is freely moving.

Why it matters: Filed before significant advancements in real-time processing power and sensor accuracy. Modern embedded systems and improved force/torque sensors make complex dynamic control for human-robot interaction and object handling more practical and cost-effective.

Status: Not in forceListed as no longer active. The specific reason is not in the record we hold.
How hard to build: SpecializedRobot arm, sensors, real-time control software
