Compliant Control and Application

It contains the compliant control algorithms in robotic arm, and the chosen robot is universal robot which is popular collaborate robot in the world.

Compile

mkdir catkin_ws/src && cd catkin_ws/src
git clone https://github.com/MingshanHe/Compliant-Control-and-Application.git
sudo chmod +x install_dependencies.sh && ./install_dependencies.sh
catkin build (or cd .. && catkin_make)

If there is come up with some errors during compile process, you might need to install some ros packages for support this project, I recommend you to run following command or search the compile error in Google or Baidu and so on.

rosdep install -i --from-path src --rosdistro noetic --ignore-src -r -y

Check

using the following command to check the self-defined controller. Like:cartesian_velocity_controller

rospack plugins --attrib=plugin controller_interface

Run

Notice: In this repository, I have used ur5e robot and its urdf file need to be changed in different situation, like need or not a force/torque sensor in the end effector. Please check the urdf file seriously and run the algorithm, Thanks.

1. Admittance

roslaunch ur_gazebo ur5e_bringup.launch transmission_hw_interface:=hardware_interface/PositionJointInterface specified_controller:=cartesian_velocity_controller
roslaunch admittance Admittance.launch

After the robot has moved to the desired pose, run the following commands to generate fake wrench signal

roslaunch admittance Wrench_Fake.launch

2. Impedance

roslaunch ur_gazebo ur5e_bringup.launch transmission_hw_interface:=hardware_interface/EffortJointInterface specified_controller:=joint_torque_controller
roslaunch impedance Impedance.launch

3. Application (Hybrid Admittance Control)

roslaunch mir_gazebo mir_empty_world.launch
roslaunch admittance HybridAdmittance.launch

Notice: You could change the value.

rostopic pub /wrench_fake geometry_msgs/Wrench 
"force:
  x: 100.0
  y: 0.0
  z: 0.0
torque:
  x: 0.0
  y: 0.0
  z: 0.0" 

4. Hybrid Position Force Control (No longer Maintained)

roslaunch ur_gazebo ur5e_bringup.launch transmission_hw_interface:=hardware_interface/PositionJointInterface specified_controller:=cartesian_velocity_controller environment:=polish
roslaunch hybrid_position_force_control hybrid_position_force_control.launch

And then it needs to use the topic publish command in the terminal. It is recommended to move to the pose [-0.1, 0.3, 0.3, 0.707, -0.707, 0.0, 0.0].

rostopic pub /desired_carteisan_pose_cmd geometry_msgs/Pose "position: x: -0.10 y: 0.30 z: 0.30 orientation: x: 0.707 y: -0.707 z: 0.0 w: 0.0"
