NONLINEAR CONTROL OF ROBOT MANIPULATORS - A BRIEF OVERVIEW OF RECENT ADVANCES

Abstract

Modern technologies using robotic arms require complex control laws to ensure an accurate and fast technological process, thereby emphasizing the increasingly prominent position of non-linear control systems, which is the topic of this article. Recent advances in non-linear robot manipulator control systems from an application point of view are reviewed with critical commentary on related issues. It is expected that the wide dissemination of this review will stimulate closer collaboration between the research community in multidisciplinary fields and encourage further developments.
