  1. 16. Comparison of control strategies for manipulating a Hydrobatic Autonomous Underwater Vehicle

    University essay from KTH/Mekatronik

    Author : Chariklia Panteli; [2021]
    Keywords : Autonomous Underwater Vehicle; AUV; Gripper; Manipulator; Controlcomparison; Linear Quadratic Regulator; LQR; PID; Model Predictive Controller; MPC; Autonomt undervattensfordon; AUV; Gripper; Manipulator; Kontrolljämförelse; Linjär kvadratisk regulator; LQR; PID; Modell Predictive Controller; MPC;

    Abstract : This master thesis project is focused on the development of an LQR controller and its comparison with other controllers (PID and MPC), in order to successfully control an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle manipulation system. The modelling of the manipulator was performed first in Matlab and later on in Simulink-Simscape. READ MORE

  3. 17. A Machine Vision System for Robotic Operations Quality Control in an Automated Biological Lab

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

    Author : Rikard Nyström; [2021]
    Keywords : Machine vision; Automation; Robotics quality control; Image processing; Barcode recognition;

    Abstract : Quality control is a necessity when it comes to automating a biological lab with the help of robotics. Two major quality control objectives are targeted by the research group PharmBio at Uppsala University: (1) barcode recognition and decoding, and (2) determining the position and orientation of microplates relative the gripper at the end of an industrial robot arm.

  4. 18. Accuracy and Repeatability of a Robotic Arm

    University essay from KTH/Mekatronik

    Author : Carl-Victor Lidholm; Victor Runnquist; [2021]
    Keywords : Mechatronics; Robotic arm; Accuracy and Repeatability; Nyckelord: Mekatronik; Robotarm; Noggrannhet; Repeterbarhet;

    Abstract : The purpose of this project was to create a model of a robotic arm with 4-DOF equipped with a gripper that is able to move an object to a predetermined area. This thesis investigated the robotic arm’s accuracy by repeating the same predetermined movement and measure the error. READ MORE
