Abstract: In teleoperation tasks, communication delays between master and slave sides negatively affect the stability and transparency of closed loop system, and make it difficult to maintain a desired contact force. In order to improve the performance of contact force control in teleoperation under large time delays, a shared compliant control method is proposed in this paper. On the master side, the operator issues a desired contact force command according to the feedback of the contact stiffness identified on line besides motion commands. And on the slave side, a local contact force controller is designed using an adaptive Smith predictor, so as to shares control load with the operator. Experimental results show that this method can improve the force control performance, lower the difficulty of operation, and help the operator complete contact tasks with proper forces.In teleoperation tasks, communication delays between master and slave sides negatively affect the stability and transparency of closed loop system, and make it difficult to maintain a desired contact force.

Abstract: Space Robot Shared Control System (SRSCS) and its virtual reality simulation technology have been mainly researched in this paper. First, Shared control system for space robot combined autonomous control with teleoperation has been put forward. Then, Simulation system architecture for SRSCS based on three dimension virtual model has been developed. Finally, computer graphics visualization simulation has been finished successfully.

Abstract: BCI systems can use additional intelligence such as machine vision or obstacle avoidance routines to provide a goal-oriented approach. This paper describes a P300-based BCI system to control a small robotic arm. On the robot arm's gripper a small camera was mounted continuously capturing images from the environment. The software waits for a character from the P300-based BCI speller to turn either clockwise or counterclockwise. Once turning the image detection software automatically searches for the colored object and delivers it to a preset target location. Results showed that the BCI system performed fast and accurate.

Abstract: This paper presents a generic design and implementation of a telerobotic system application for the remote welding of unstructured and hazardous environment. The objective is to establish a remote welding telerobotic system that is flexibility to carry out welding seam tracing and welding remotely. According to the difference of welding task and environment, this paper presents human machine cooperative control strategies that integrate sensor and model-based computer assistance. The human operator decision and control commands participate into every control level of the teleoperation system. The specific control modes have been presented to integrate into human machine interface (HMI).
