Abstract :
A computational scheme is presented for the implementation of passivity-based controllers for serial and graph structured manipulators. A special method of incorporating feedback improves the computational efficiency by allowing the designer to base the control on the passivity properties of the entire manipulator. Sufficient conditions are presented to guarantee trajectory tracking of the system. Example controllers and experimental results are presented
