Title
Motion/Force/Image Control of a Diagnostic Ultrasound Robot
Abstract
A fully counter-balanced 6-DOF robot for ultrasoundcarotid artery diagnosis has been developed in the Ro-botics and Control Laboratory at UBC [1]. This paperpresents the controller design. The controller is basicallya velocity controller capable of incorporating positioncontrol, force control, and image based control,in terms of shared control principle. Safety issue isdeeply concerned in design of the control system. Thefully counter-balanced mechanical design allows to useextremely...
