Mechanics, Planning, and Control for Tapping

Workshop Paper, 3rd International Workshop on the Algorithmic Foundations of Robotics (WAFR '98), pp. 91 - 102, March, 1998

Abstract

We have been studying manipulation using impulsive forces; in particular, we have focused on the manipu­ lation of planar sliders by tapping. These objects then slide on a support surface, slowing down and coming to rest due to frictional forces. In this paper, we present analytical and experimental results in the mechanics, planning, and control of this system.
