Adaptive motion control of parallel robots with kinematic and dynamic uncertainties

One of the most challenging issues in adaptive control of robot manipulators with kinematic uncertainties is requirement of the inverse of Jacobian matrix in regressor form. This requirement is inevitable in the case of the control of parallel robots, whose dynamic equations are written directly in the task space. In this paper, an adaptive controller is designed for parallel robots based on representation of Jacobian matrix in regressor form, such that asymptotic trajectory tracking is ensured. The main idea is separation of determinant and adjugate of Jacobian matrix and then organize new regressor forms. Simulation and experimental results on a 2--DOF R\underline{P}R and 3--DOF redundant cable driven robot, verify promising performance of the proposed methods.
