Elastic-joint two-link robot and robust position control

The study combines low-cost elastic joints with model-reference adaptive and fuzzy PI control for a 3D-printed two-link arm. The publisher abstract reports simulation and prototype experiments addressing uncertain dynamics and disturbances. Compliance is relevant to contact risk, while the reported control tests do not establish an injury threshold or certified safety function.
