Abstract :
This paper addresses the adaptive tracking control of flexible joint manipulators based on the singular perturbation approach. Comparisons between adaptive and nonadaptive tracking controllers are given. Experimental results with the DLR´s light weight robot are given for the 2-DOF case.
