Stable hybrid position/force control for redundant manipulators

Hybrid position/force control is not always stable by adjusting the control parameters. There may be unstable regions if position and force control are exerted simultaneously because of an inappropriate kinematic coordinate transformation in the feedback path. To realize hybrid control for redundant manipulators, we analyze system stability and develop an improved hybrid control scheme that ensures kinematically stable operation.
