OPENTECHNICAL PUBLICATION OT-2026-000001717 Action abstraction controller for fully actuated robotic manipulators Published: 2026-09-15T19:07:53.929108Z Permanent URL: https://opentechnical.org/p/OT-2026-000001717 Categories: Robotics & Automation > Robot Architectures ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ABSTRACT Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for controlling a robot manipulator that has a plurality of joints. One of the methods includes obtaining a control input that comprises one or more velocity values that specify a target velocity of a reference point in a given coordinate frame; determining a respective joint velocity for each of the plurality of joints by generating a solution to an optimization problem formulated from the control input; and controlling the robot manipulator, including causing the plurality of joints of the robot manipulator to move in accordance with the respective joint velocities to approximate the control input. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ OpenTechnical publication OT-2026-000001717 Published 2026-09-15T19:07:53.929108Z https://opentechnical.org/p/OT-2026-000001717
