Abstract:Although aerial manipulation has been a subject of research for several years, the manner of manipulation is limited to fairly low interaction wrenches. This is probably mainly due to the fact that, in contrary to a stationary robotic arm with a fixed base, UAVs are free floating bodies. Therefore, they are unable to close the force cycle with the environment, and thus must intrinsically deliver the reaction forces. By making UAVs able to execute tasks that demand significantly larger interaction torques than UAVs can continuously provide about their principle axes, their range of applications can also include tasks like drilling holes, tightening or loosening bolts, or grinding or cleaning surfaces.
