On the use of local force feedback for transparent teleoperation

Abstract
This paper studies the advantages of employing local force feedback for enhanced stability and performance in teleoperation systems. It also shows how a class of three-channel architecture bilateral controllers can provide perfect transparency under ideal conditions. Furthermore, the robustness of the proposed architecture to the communication channel time-delays is analytically investigated. Experimental results are also included to support the theoretical work.
