Multi-contact compliant motion control for robotic manipulators

The paper describes the formulation of multi-contact compliant motion control. It extends our previous work to non-rigid environments. The contact forces are controlled through active observers (AOB), based on the Kalman filter theory. Noise characteristics enter in the control design and are estimated on-line. Experimental results are provided.
