Dynamic coordination of two robot arms

Abstract
This paper presents a new control method for coordinated control of two robot arms. The two arms are assumed to work on the same object simultaneously. The control method uses a dynamic coordinator acting on relative position and velocity task space errors and on relative force-torque errors between the two arms as sensed at the end effectors. This method is novel because we could superimpose the position and velocity error feedback with the force-torque error feedback in the task space simultaneously.
