Abstract
Nowadays haptic devices have lots of applications in virtual reality systems. While using a haptic device, one of the main requirements is the stable behavior of the system. An unstable behavior of a haptic device may damage itself and even may hurt its operator. Stability of haptic devices in the presence of inevitable time delay in addition to a suitable zero-order hold is studied in the presented paper, using two different methods. Both presented methods are based on Lyapunov-Krazuvskii functional. In the first method, a model transform is performed to determine the stability boundary, while the second approach is based on Free Weighing Matrices (FWMs). Delay-dependent stability criteria are determined by solving Linear Matrix Inequalities (LMIs). Results of these two methods are compared with each other and verified by simulations as well as experiments on a KUKA Light Weight Robot 4 (LWR4). It is concluded that using free weighing matrices leads to more unknown parameters and needs more calculation, but its results are less conservative.
