Hierarchical Control Strategy for Moving A Robot Manipulator Between Small Containers

Paolo Torrado, Boling Yang, Joshua Smith

In this paper, we study the implementation of a model predictive controller (MPC) for the task of object manipulation in a highly uncertain environment (e.g., picking objects from…
