  ABSTRACT: This paper describes a novel ground development facility that is currently being built at the European Space Agency. The facility can be used to develop and test new man-machine interfaces for tele-control of dexterous space manipulators. Furthermore, the facility allows comparing performance of existing input devices, such as conventional joysticks, with novel devices, such as exoskeletons. The ground testbed allows conducting tele-manipulation experiments with a real robot and to measure performance metrics during remote operations. The experimental comparisons planned to be undertaken with the test-bed are outlined

  Article: Bowden cable actuator for torque feedback in haptic applications

  ABSTRACT: This paper introduces a novel type of actuator for force-reflection to haptic master interfaces. The actuator is based on a DC motor that is relocated from the mechanism joint by means of bowden cable transmissions. After an introduction and formulation of the project goals, the paper highlights some important bowden cable transmission characteristics that influence the design of the neces-sary hardware. Next, a hardware prototype is presented that has been built to analyze the transmission characteristics of the bowden cable transmissions between actuator and robotic joint. The proto-type was used next to investigate achievable actuator performance in force-feedback control with a slave. Results are presented, which show good performance and contact stability in a 4 channel control scheme. The actuator has low movement resistance in free motion and can reflect high torques during hard contact situations with a slave.
