摘要

In human-robot co-manipulation, the robot's trajectory should accommodate the human's, where human sensorimotor behavior is affected by the task's spatial and temporal constraints, as well as personal factors. Several robot trajectory planning methods have been proposed to embed human sensorimotor models in the robot trajectory planning, but these methods do not consider temporal constraints that adapt to how the human behaves when interacting with the robot. To better align human and robot collaborative motion, this work adapts a stochastic optimal control problem with a final state constraint from the task constraints and a temporal constraint from Fitts' law. A recursive least squares method is used to estimate the Fitts' law parameters, adapting the robot's motion duration to that of the human, thus allowing the robot to adapt to how the human behaves when interacting with the robot. It is hypothesized that a speed increase can result from the robot augmenting the accuracy. The feasibility of the approach is validated on a positioning task where the robot controls degrees of freedom which have repeatable motion, and the human adapts motion in the complementary degrees of freedom. The approach is shown to be computationally suited to online use, it converges as the human and robot mutually adapt, and can increase the movement speed, although thorough human studies are needed in future work.
