Abstract :
Presents a procedure to design nonlinear observers for robots with elastic joints. This observer estimates the whole state vector of a manipulator by using only the measurements of the joint global displacements and their time rates. With reference to a particular two revolute joint robot some simulation tests to verify the goodness of the observer are reported
