| Research Abstract |
The research deals with mathematical modeling of human-like rest-to-rest reaching movements. Two models, the deterministic minimum effort model and the probabilistic minimum variance model, are under development and comparison. It was found that in the limiting case of post-movement time these models gives equivalent predictions under the assumption of the plant stability. The models were verified and tested under experiments using programmable haptic interface implementing a variety of holonomic constraints. Non-holonomic constraints were also addressed in the framework of this research. Here, reaching movements in the presence of rolling constraint were under investigation. A mathematical model of a spherical rolling robot was developed and the condition of dynamic realizability was established. Two motion planning algorithms have been proposed. A spherical rolling robot was designed and tested under experiment.
