Power-optimized stiffness and nonlinear position control of an actuator with Variable Torsion Stiffness

Abstract: Introducing compliant actuation to robotic joints is an approach to ensure safety in closer human-machine interaction. Further, the possibility to adjust stiffness can be benificial, considering energy storage and the power consumption required to track certain trajectories. The subject of this paper is the stiffness and position control of the Variable Torsion Stiffness (VTS) actuator for application in compliant robotic joints. For the realization of a variable rotational stiffness, the active length of a to… Show more
