This paper deals with the full dynamic modeling and control of a flying architecture called a flying parallel robot (FPR). This architecture, which can be seen as a parallel robot whose actuators have been replaced by drones, offers novel possibilities for robotic and aerial manipulation. Over the last decade, many prototypes have been...
Typically, for pick-and-place robots operating at high speeds, an enormous amount of energy is lost during the robot braking phase. This is due to the fact that, during such operational phase, most of the energy is dissipated as heat on the braking resistances of the motor drivers. In order to increase the energy-efficiency during the...
It is known that when performing high-speed pick-and-place motions in robot manipulators, an enormous amount of energy is dissipated in order to stop the robot during the braking phase. Typically, this energy is lost as heat in the braking resistances of the motor drivers, leading to increase the energetic losses in the actuation chain. In...
