The robotic manipulators (also called robotic arms) used in Canadian industry today are dangerous machines that must be isolated from people using physical barriers. An intrinsically safe, human-sized, robotic manipulator could operate close to humans to assist them both at work and at home. Intrinsic safety would help to eliminate the need to make manipulators operating in human environments manually controlled and extremely slow moving. This technology would improve the safety of current applications and enable many new ones to be developed, e.g. assisting the elderly at home. The proposed research will address the design and control of such a manipulator. The research program will encompass the following subtopics:

今天在加拿大工业中使用的机械手（也称为机械臂）是危险的机器，必须使用物理屏障与人隔离。 一个本质上安全的，人类大小的机器人操纵器可以在人类附近操作，以帮助他们在工作和家庭中。 本质安全将有助于消除在人类环境中手动控制和极慢移动的操纵器的需要。这项技术将提高当前应用的安全性，并使许多新的应用得以开发，例如帮助家中的老人。 建议的研究将解决这样的机械手的设计和控制。 该研究计划将包括以下子主题：
