| Title | High-precision control of an electromagnetically-driven manipulator |
| Objective | to implement and setup a control system on an electromagnetically-driven manipulator. |
| Scope | Over the past one decade, electromagnetic driving scheme has raised as a promising contender in the field of ultrahigh-precision manipulation. This is mainly due to its capability of achieving millimeters of displacements with infinite positioning resolutions in elevated acceleration and speed. Consequently, it has been adopted by ultrahigh-precision manipulators that are targeted for millimeters of workspaces with elevated bandwidth actuations. Unfortunately, existing electromagnetically-driven manipulators require complex algorithm and costly control systems to operate. The scope of this project is divided into 3 phases:Phase 1:To gain a basic understanding on electromagnetically-driven manipulators. This includes the various techniques use to realize an electromagnetic driving scheme, i.e. electromagnetic propulsion, magnetic levitation and Lorentz-force actuation. Phase 2: To propose and implement an appropriate control scheme on an electromagnetically-driven manipulator. Phase 3: To setup a complete control system including hardwiring and programming of control algorithm using platforms such as LabVIEW, C++, etc. |
