Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 5Toward Safe and High-Performance Human-Robot Collaboration Via Implementation of Redundancy and Understanding the Effects of Admittance Term Parameters(Cambridge University Press, 2022) Kanık, Mert; Ayit, Orhan; Dede, Mehmet İsmet Can; Tatlıcıoğlu, EnverSummary Today, demandsin industrial manufacturing mandate humans to work with large-scale industrial robots, and this collaboration may result in dangerous conditions for humans. To deal with this situation, this work proposes a novel approach for redundant large-scale industrial robots. In the proposed approach, an admittance controller is designed to regulate the interaction between the end effector of the robot and the human. Additionally, an obstacle avoidance algorithm is implemented in the null space of the robot to prevent any possible unexpected collision between the human and the links of the robot. After safety performance of this approach is verified via simulations and experimental studies, the effect of the parameters of the admittance controller on the performance of collaboration in terms of both accuracy and total human effort is investigated. This investigation is carried out via 8 experiments by the participation of 10 test subjects in which the effect of different admittance controller parameters such as mass and damper are compared. As a result of this investigation, tuning insights for such parameters are revealed.Article Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 7Human-Robot Interfaces of the Neuroboscope: a Minimally Invasive Endoscopic Pituitary Tumor Surgery Robotic Assistance System(ASME, 2021) Dede, Mehmet İsmet Can; Kiper, Gökhan; Ayav, Tolga; Özdemirel, Barbaros; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver; Hanalioğlu, Şahin; Işıkay, İlkayEndoscopic endonasal surgery is a commonly practiced minimally invasive neurosurgical operation for the treatment of a wide range of skull base pathologies including pituitary tumors. A common shortcoming of this surgery is the necessity of a third hand when the endoscope has to be handled to allow active use of both hands of the main surgeon. The robot surgery assistant NeuRoboScope system has been developed to take over the endoscope from the main surgeon's hand while providing the surgeon with the necessary means of controlling the location and direction of the endoscope. One of the main novelties of the NeuRoboScope system is its human-robot interface designs which regulate and facilitate the interaction between the surgeon and the robot assistant. The human-robot interaction design of the NeuRoboScope system is investigated in two domains: direct physical interaction (DPI) and master-slave teleoperation (MST). The user study indicating the learning curve and ease of use of the MST is given and this paper is concluded via providing the reader with an outlook of possible new human-robot interfaces for the robot assisted surgery systems.Article Citation - WoS: 9Citation - Scopus: 10A Multi-Priority Controller for Industrial Macro-Micro Manipulation(Cambridge University Press, 2021) Uzunoğlu, Emre; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver; Dede, Mehmet İsmet CanIn this study, a control algorithm is proposed and evaluated for a special type of kinematically redundant manipulator. This manipulator is comprised of two mechanisms, macro and micro mechanisms, with distinct acceleration and work space characteristics. A control algorithm is devised to minimize the task completion duration and the overall actuator effort with respect to the conventional manipulator. A general framework multi-priority controller for macro-micro manipulators is introduced by utilizing virtual dynamics, which is introduced in null-space projection to achieve secondary tasks. The proposed controller is evaluated on a simulation model based on a previously constructed macro-micro manipulator for planar laser cutting. Task completion duration and the total actuator effort are investigated and the results are compared. Copyright © The Author(s), 2020.

Desktop devices for academic/educational purposes have been highly anticipated especially in the fields of haptics, teleoperation systems, and control studies. This paper's motivation is to present the steps of designing, manufacturing, and implementing of Educational Desktop Robot R3D to be used for haptics, teleoperation, and redundancy control studies. The design, manufacturing details, kinematic, and dynamic model of the robot are described in the manuscript. Additionally, a case study is carried out for end effector control in task space is given and the results are shared.Article Citation - WoS: 8Citation - Scopus: 10A New Objective Function for Obstacle Avoidance by Redundant Service Robot Arms(SAGE Publications Inc., 2016) Dede, Mehmet İsmet Can; Maaroof, Omar W.; Tatlıcıoglu, EnverThe performance of task-space tracking control of kinematically redundant robots regulating self-motion to ensure obstacle avoidance is studied and discussed. As the subtask objective, the links of the kinematically redundant assistive robot should avoid any collisions with the patient that is being assisted. The shortcomings of the obstacle avoidance algorithms are discussed and a new obstacle avoidance algorithm is proposed. The performance of the proposed algorithm is validated with tests that were carried out using the virtual model of a seven degrees-offreedom robot arm. The test results indicate that the developed controller for the robot manipulator is successful in both accomplishing the main-task and the sub-task objectives.
