摘要：AbstractThe control of the interaction between a robot and the environment is very important in the medical area. The control of this interaction can be realized with either a force control, which does not need human intervention, or co-manipulation, where the human operator moves the robot himself. This paper focuses on a simple hybrid external control scheme allowing these two applications by modelling the robot as a rigid structure interacting with the environment thanks to a spring representing the force sensor. Simulations were used to test the control system. Several experiments prove the accuracy of the control, for a one degree of freedom robot.
