Abstract

The introduction of mobile manipulators on unstructured environments brings many interesting research problems, such as their modeling and control. This paper shows a systematic approach to modeling mobile manipulators that transforms the problem to the modeling of a stationary manipulator with nonholonomic kinematic constraints on the joints. It is also presented a task-space control that cancels a factory-installed proportional–derivative (PD) control. Finally, a numerical experiment is presented using this method.
