Constant Distance and Orientation Following of an Unknown Surface with a Cable-Driven Parallel Robot
Résumé
Cable-Driven Parallel Robots (CDPRs) are welladapted to large workspaces since they replace rigid links by cables. However, they lack in positioning accuracy and new control methods are necessary to achieve profile-following tasks. This paper presents a control scheme designed for these tasks, relying on a combination of accurate boarded distance sensors and of a less accurate remote camera. The profile-following task is divided into two subtasks that are partially conflicting: maintaining a parallel orientation and a constant distance with the surface to follow, and following a trajectory between two points on the surface. The data fusion to solve the redundancy is based on the Gradient Projection Method. This control scheme is validated experimentally on a CDPR prototype and shown to provide the expected behaviour.
