Force Control
A basic control paradigm for robot end effectors in which force/torque sensors at the end effector are used to regulate contact force in a closed loop, enabling the arm to conform to object surfaces and accommodate deformation and slipping; it contrasts with position control.
Timeline (last 90 days)
Force control means that the system not only controls position but also senses and regulates the contact force with the environment, typically estimating contact force through force/torque sensors or joint current.
Force control and position control are two basic control paradigms for robot end effectors; position control cannot actively adjust the force applied after contacting an object.
