Abstract
In proposing variable nonholonomic constraint for cooperative human-robot handling, we deal with nonholonomic wheel movement manipulated intuitively by the use. We propose implementing virtual nonholonomic constraint in robot grasping, enabling users to transfer objects, similar to using a wheelbarrow, without slipping. Transporting objects accurately in a fixed constraint point requires skill, so we propose preparing multiple constraint points to be selected based on the situation. We apply this to a mobile manipulator, confirming feasibility experimentally.
