Abstract
This paper presents a real time implementation of a sliding mode controller
(SMC) for the underactuated BERUL1 fingers. The use of SMC is to deal with the
inaccuracies and unmodelled nonlinearities in the dynamic model of the robotic fingers, in
particular, to overcome significant friction and stiction. This paper in particular shows a
practical implementation of Cartesian space control for the BERUL fingers. For the
purpose of comparison, the performance of the PID controller is included in this paper.
The main controller for positioning control is the combination of a feedback linearization
(FL) scheme and SMC. The results show that the SMC performed better than the PID
controller in the Cartesian space control.
