As noted previously, a special feature of the program of Stanford University's
Center will be a multi-faceted collaboration with the Industrial Automation
Department of SRI, International.
Stanford University and SRI, International, are totally independent
institutions located about four miles apart, with a long history of
many collaborative projects between individual groups within them.\.
\C\F2BACKGROUND

\F0\JThere is a growing recognition that this nation's economic ills are due
in large measure to low productivity.
Low productivity particularly raises the
cost of Air Force systems which are typically built in small quantities as custom
orders with special requirements at the limit of technology, and which
typically require many engineering modifications.  Because of funding
fluctuations, orders may be uncertain.  There is thus a high premium on flexible,
small-batch assembly capabilities which can quickly and easily
resume production of a modified product, or
start up production of new products, or resume production of stretched-out 
systems.

General opinion is that American industry
is already highly automated.  In fact, some industries are substantially
automated, especially continuous process industries 
e.g. oil refining.  High volume production of items in volumes
of one million or more are also highly automated by fixed automation.
The bulk of discrete parts production, however, is in small batches with little
automation and low productivity.  

The automation of
flexible batch manufacturing systems would make it possible to
optimize utilization of assembly equipment and decrease inventory 
by accomodating a product mix or quick changeover of products.
To achieve the increases in productiviTy 
that are essential if we are to remain aworld leader in technological
industrieq will require major advances in automation and manufactqring technology.  
New manufacturing systems will require extensive use of automated and
robotic systems, precision measuring systems, computers, non-contact	
gauging and non-destructive test andevaluation, rapid and efFicient	
metal-forming and cutting processes, precision dabrication processes,
precise thermal control, new approaches to management oF manudacturifg
operations, and new wais kf Thinking about @QQJAKα≠?;?nK∂Mβ|∧bππ-|G.∨M→vruEaPPh+I%&z

can be made if inspection afdtest are used to feEd baci results to 
improve the control of the production pRocess itsElf and to 
decrease fluCtuation oF the output of production.\&
\JUntil Recently, the costs of sensors, interfacing, and computers were
so high that only simple automated InspeCtion was possible.  There does
noT yet exist a well-developed automated inspecTion technology.  In those
cases in which humans don't perform inspection well, opportunities for
increased productivity and quality are lost. 

Humans have great perceptual
skill, but they do noT perform inspection well in very many cases, and they
are weak at feEdingback results in a usable way to production systems.
Human perceptual skills do not help with many non-visual sensors, typical
of exotic sensors.  Humans are not very fast, accurate or reliable in recording
and communicating results of inspection.  Humans tire rapidly in repetitive
inspection tasks.  Consequently there are large areas of industrial
production for which neither human nor automated inspection is adequate.

There is a neEd for 100% inspection of safety-relatedproducts or high
reliability products.

What are the consequences for batch production when computers, sensory control,
vision, and robots provide higher performance (faster, more accurate)
at low cost?\.

\JThe limiting factor in integrating newly-developing automation technology 
into production systems may be the engineering required.
Even if robots, sensors, and computers were to become free, total costs of 
production
systems would decrease only about a third.  In the experience of our contacts
in industry, the ratio of engineering costs to equipment costs is
typically 2 to 1 for first-of-a-kind systems, and 1 to 1 for follow-on systems.\.
\JThus, part of the
solution to the problem is to train engineering staff and provide them with
a background which will serve them now and in two decades hence when revolutionary changes
in robotics and inspection technology will be in use.
Another part of the solution is to develop technology for assembly, test, and rework
which will cut the amount of engineering required for the full cycle from
system evaluation and design to completion of production.
These, too, are objectives for the propsed Center of Excellence at Stanford
University.\.
\F2\CTHE CENTER OF EXCELLENCE

\F0\JThe proposed Center of Excellence would contribute in three ways 
to advancing productivity improvements in aerospace manufacturing in
assembly, test, and rework:
first, by educating and training engineers and scientists
who specialize in robotics and other areas of manufacturing science and
technology; second, by advancing the science and technology base for high
productivity;
and third, by contributing to technology transfer of advanced manufacturing
technology.
Stanford's approaches to
each of these three contributions are outlined in the subsections below.
Details of the proposed Stanford program in each area are then given in
subsequent major sections.\.

\jcontact With Industpy, In some cases by spendingthree month periods in
IndusTpy, and by participating in projectq important to industry or in
projects with visiTors fpom Industpy.\.
¬
Industpy projectq are so varied that the education of engifeers 
cannot be tailored for specifIc jobs; progress is so rapid that a 
tra`e-oriented education would be obsolete as a company evolved.
It is important thatindustry and university research staff communicate
about what research is important for applications, what research is likely to
be productive and scientifically relevant, and what applications might flow
from current technology.  
Then, courses, research, and educational experience should 
be fundamental in nature; education 
should be useful for engineers over their potential work life.

Since much detailed learning is on the job, it is important that a university
program such
as this proposed Center should educate technological leaders in absolutely fundamental
concepts, so that they can learn and grow
on the job, and so that they will be capable of conceiving,
initiating, and implementing major programs, not just act as
rank and fiLe engineers, implementing the concepts of others.
It Is important to US firis that univeRqitieq provide several aspects of tpaining:
1) education in fundamentals Will provide engineerq with a basis for enhancing their
technical skills throughout Theirwork life, despite rapid advance of the 
technology;
2) intense project implementation experience combined with strong fundamentals
will enable them to come to speed quickly on new assignments;
3) experience with industry will aid in developing  physical intuition 
from abstractions.

Stanford aims at educating leaders with just that approach, with a strong 
fundamental background, but
with extensive experience in implementation of complete experimental systems.
The principal laboratories involved in the Center have strong theoretical
and experimental
programs involving conceptualization, design, building, experiment, and analysis
requiring several disciplines.  Students make use of resources of the research
team, including those of other students and the greater research community.\.

\JIndustry, universities, and R&D laboratories encounter
shortages of qualified staff at all levels of the chain of technology generation,
training and education, research, development, and implementation.
As development of productivity technology intensifies,
shortages of productivity engineering staff are expected to become more severe.
In industry, morineers with appropriate
training, education, and experience to plan and execute automation projects
are needed to implement current productivity technology in aerospace manufacturing.
More engineering staff are required for technology transfer, planning, 
development of future technology, and research. 
Universities and research institutions require more staff for basic research
and applied research, for teaching courses and for directing students in
areas of manufacturing technology.\.

\JThe Center would
contribute to educating and training experts in programmable automation for
assembly, test,  and  inspection.   A comparison  with  Japanese  industry
illustrates an  important aspect  of education  and training.   In  Japan,
turnover of engineers is low;
workers typically remain with their company for life.  Japanese companies can
afford to provide extensive training to engineers.  In the US, engineers have
a shorter expected mean time on the job.  A US company cannot afford to devote
the same resources to training as a Japanese company. 
Further, the ratio between salaries for Japanese engineers and production workers
is lower than in the US, Thus Japanese firms can afford more engineering effort
on projects.\.

We also plan to develop lInear integrated circuits to miniaturize interdaces

Contact and force sensors should be sensitive, low-cost, simple to interface9 
to achieve spatial localization, many small sensors may be necessary.
The proposed Center would mobilize VLSI technology to develop 
VLSI potential for many, low-cost, miniature devices.
Optical processing has the potential to perform simple visual operations
quickly, operations which are very computation-intensive.  It is proposed
to study harnessing optical computation power to augment vision systems for
edge and corner detection.\.

\CTechnology Transfer

\JWe think that technology is transferred to people,
by participating in hoint efforts at many levels, e.g. at the level of 
defining research programs  afdat the level of engineerss.
Industry and universities can also transfer working
technology, especially integrated systems, but also modules.
Again, it is necessary not only to transfer hardware and software, but
to train people to use and develop the technology.

In studying Japanese research and development in areas of robotics and computer
vision, we have observed that the Japanese seem to have a major edge in
technology utilization.  In basic research, the Japanese seem to lead in
manipulator development, while the US appears to lead in fundamental vision
and inspection capabilities.  Considering the lag in US application of research,
US strength in basic research may keep us within range.
The US lag in fundamental work in manipulator development is disturbing.
It is time, however,
to work at transitioning technology and to work at setting up mechanisms to 
maintain a continuous process of technology transfer.
Multiple mechanisms for technology transfer are proposed.  They include:\.

\ja strong Industrial Advisory Committee and affiliates program;\.

\jindustry visitors who participate in research;\.

\jtransitioning of systems which are now ready for exploitation including the
AL system and ACRONYM, and
continuing transitioning of systems as they are developed;\.

\ja specific technology transfer project to assess applications problems
and assess technology capabilities to maintain a continuous dialog concerning
technology transfer.\.

have been implemented in Karlsruhe, Germany, Tokyo, Japan, and Grenoble, France.
There is great commercial interest in AL both in the US and Japan.

Robotics at SAIL is a large program with more than 20 people involved continuously
with others involved in short term projects.  Other groups 
in the Stanford program make the total considerably larger.
Research focuses on two major systems:\.
\jThe AL system for programming robots;\.
\jThe ACRONYM system for geometric modeling and spatial reasoning.\.

\JThey provide an experimental system of increasing power and provide a
way of testing the generality of modules.
Total system integration provides a means of technology transfer.
Thus, there is a combined focus on implementation and theory.\.

\JStanford is one of the leaders in many areas of robotics:
integrated vision systems; geometric modeling; stereo vision; edge finding;
programming systems for robots; force control integrated in software;
dynamics and control; basic kinematic analysis and theory;
and manipulator design.  Stanford has also strength in sensory technology,
computer systems and distributed networks, and VLSI implementation of
special purpose computation for robotics.\.

\JThe Robotics Laboratory has had close relations with a number of
companies since about 1974, including GM, Texas Instruments, Honeywell,
and Unimation.  Negotiations are underway for establishment of strong
industrial sponsorship of the Robotics Laboratory.\.

Under contract from the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory, Professor
DeBra's team designed and built the flight controller which maintained its
assigned satellite in a purely gravitational orbit to an accuracy of two
parts in 10\∩12\⊗, thus improving greatly the accuracy and predictability
of the satellite's trajectory in its use as a precise navigational reference
for the submarine fleet.

In recent years, Professor DeBra has also been heavily involved in
engineering and control for super precise machining in a range of other
contexts, including work with Lawrence Livermore Laboratories.\.

Computer Science, Mechanical Engineering, Aeronautics and Astronautics,

Within this context, participants in this proposal 
for a Center of Excellence are a subset of CAMS, with 6 professors
listed as investigators on the cover of this document.

Among other participants in CAMS not included in
the proposed Center of Excellence, several  have strength 
in fabrication technology, especially Professor Miller (metal forming),
Professor DeBra (precision machining), Professor G. Kino (nondestructive testing),
Professor George Herrman (behavior and testing of 
metals in manufacturing processes).
Stanford departments of Aero and Astro and ME have traditionally had strength
in structures. As part of CAMS it is planned to build up an experimental program
in composite structures.
These capabilities reelate to other Air Force programs in 
manufacturing technology in areas of fabrication.\.

\F2\CEDUCATION

\F0\JCAMS proposes a broad and flexible educational program,
in the area of automation,
the elements of which have been tested and proved.

The proposed program would expand an educational program in robotics
which has been successful over sixteen years, since 1965.
The central theme is learning by participation in directed projects
in research and in building experimental systems, an intensive experience
with a forcing function of priorities, personal involvement, and deadlines,
learning by working with faculty and with other students.
In a critical mass program such as this, the learning opportunity is unparalleled.
It takes several academic generations to build up an academic staff with experience,
profound knowledge of the field, and good scientific judgment.
The educational program in programmable automation at Stanford is already
very strong.  There is a strong argument that Stanford leads by
far in producing experts in programmable auTomation and robotics.  
It is cost-effective to expand this program which has good facilities and
excellent personnel. 
The faculty and research staff involved in this proposed program are
augmented by outstanding visiting researchers from other research
institutions, by advanced graduate students who are already established experts,
and by research staff at a large number of institutions and firms in the area.
Members of the SRI research staff will participate in teaching and directing
students.
Co-direction of research projects would also be performed by qualified experts
in companies which send students to this program.
In retrospect, Stanford has been effective in this way in producing people who
assume leadership positions in industry and research.

The program has a focus of basic research applied to important applications,
with two components, a strong fundamental background, and extensive project
participation in building complete experimental systems.
We propose to strengthen the educational program in automation by the following
actions:\.

\jexpand experimental laboratories in robotics, inspection, and control;
consolidate robotics projects of Computer Science and Aeronautics in a single
laboratory;\.

\jprovide students as technical support staff for laboratories in electronics
 and mechanical systems;\.

\jexpand the robotics course to three quarters (this had already been planned);\.

\jmaintain more PhD level research staff who contribute to teaching and
supervising research projects;\.

\jprovide computer facilities for students to give experience with
advanced use of computers in engineering;\.

\jexpand the course series in manufacturing (in progress);\.

\jenlist researchers at SRI and local companies the area to lecture and guide 
students.\.

where necessary to accomodate increased use of facilities to support education
and training.  It is important to utilize time of students and visiting staff
effectively by providing adequate facilities.\.

\JAn important part of education will involve experience with modern computer
systems integrated into engineering applications.
It is proposed to provide students in the program access to high performance
engineering work stations (SUN terminals $7,000 each) which provide 
high resolution graphics
with powerful local computing and which link to local computers and networks.
It is proposed to provide several computers with sophisticated systems
to support training and research of students in the program ($100,000 each).
It is proposed to provide students with terminals for home use ($1,000).
In order to utilize the educational, training, and research opportunities
most efficiently, it is important to provide adequate hardware support for
students.  Required hardware costs are minor.
For those students in Computer Science and Computer Systems
Laboratory, most of those facilities will already be available.  The budget
includes funds for computing equipment for Mechanical Engineering and
Aeronautics and Astronautics departments for the benefit of students in the
proposed Center of Excellence.\.
\CThe Students

\JA prime feature of the proposed Stanford Center of Excellence would be
its large and multi-skilled student contingent, who would be expected to
number perhaps 60 at any given time, including 30 involved in PhD research.
A benefit of doing research at Stanford is the remarkably high talent
level of students who choose this campus for their graduate studies.
An essential part of the learning experience is learning from other
students; this is usually overlooked, but is very important.
Furthermore, students develop skills in productive team work at a high level.

Another part of professional development is setting up contacts with

\CDegree Programs

\JDegree programs are outlined below.  There will in addition be non-degree
programs.
Visitors from industry may come for extended periods, 1 year or more.
In some cases, visits might be as short as six months for staff who have special
talents and who are ready in a short time to contribute to major research efforts
or to learn and transfer special research capabilities.\.

\JThe proposed program includes the following educational levels, described
in detail later:\.

\j1) PhD degrees in departmental or interdepartmental programs;\.

\j2) Engineer degrees in departmental programs;  the engineer degree is
intermediate between a PhD and an MS, with a strong practical project
requirement;\.

\j3) MS programs with various specializations;\.

\j4) BS programs with various specializations;\.

\j5) short term training seminars on particular research systems, for example
on the AL system for programming robots;\.

\j6) short courses, e.g. summer courses in robotics.\.

\JDetails of specialized programs would be adjusted by discussions among
the Industry Advisory Committee and  members of the proposed Center, in 
consultation
with departments involved.  Since most of the academic programs anticipated are
underway, we have strong models for these programs.
Much of the course support for the academic program in automation already exists.
The departmental structure at Stanford allows unusual flexibility for cooperation
among departments, as might be seen from the history of collaboration and sharing
of students among participants in the proposed Center.
In addition, there are Graduate Special programs, interdepartmental programs
arranged by individual students.
¬
Summaries of existing and proposed educational programs in Automation
and Manufacturing Science in each department are included as
appendiCes, Including coursEs, deerees, facilities, and laboratories.

Engineer's Degree programs exist for Mechanical Engineering, Electrical
Engineering, and Aeronautical Engineering.  
Specializations in Manufacturing Science are available.
Computer Science does not
have an Engineer's Degree because Computer Science is in the School of
Humanities and Sciences.  However, Electrical Engineering programs 
of the Computer Systems Laboratory cover
large areas of computer science, and there is a speCial Master's Degree
program in Compqter Science, MS in CSAI, which has anequivalent program
in the area of specialization of Artificial IntelLigence, with subareas
of robotics and expert systems.

\CIndustrial Interaction in Research

\F0\JWe have relatively strong contacts with Unimation West and have negotiated
collaboration on several topics. Joint efforts are being negotiated
for medium scale research projects with several other firms, especially
GM, DEC, IBM, and Honeywell.
Robotics has had small levels of support from GM Research Labs and Alcoa 
Foundation, plus a major equipment grant from  Texas Instruments.
The support and the information from these contacts have been valuable 
to us in guiding our research program.

Negotiations are underway for establishment of strong
industrial sponsorship of the Robotics Laboratory.
A prospectus for substantial industrial support for the robotics laboratory
is being prepared.

The robotics effort has had a number of visitors from industry for one year
periods, including Dr. David Grossman,
IBM, leader of their robotics research program, and Dr. Bruce Bullock, Hughes
Research Labs, Malibu, leader of their program in Imace Understafding.

implementations for modules which can be combined into systems for many
applications.   We have also developed integrated experimental systems which
incorporate and test the capabilities of these modules in selected
assemblies.
These systems provide a means of technology transfer.  An important
aspect of utilizing technology is total system integration.
Our background of building systems and our current robot systems offer a 
substantial contribution to technology utilization.

We believe that important new technology is close at hand.
We believe that we have new technology ready to transition, especially in
sensor-controlled robots.\.

development of a flexible design description language called DDL.
Coordinated with DDL is a simulator/reasoner called SHAM.

We propose to extend DART to analog circuits.
While the DDL formalism is appropriate for digital circuits, there
are no terms for describing analog phenomena such as
feedback or oscillation.
We also propose to investigate automated test generation.
Considerable work on testing has been done over the past few decades,
culminating in powerful methods like the D algorithm.  However,
most of these methods are very sensitive to the complexity of the 
devices under test.  For VLSI, those methods are not feasible.\.


\F0\CProject 4: Rapid, Precise Control of Nonrigid Manipulators

\F0\JThe key problem we propose to attack is the optimal design of lightweight,
end-point-controlled flexible manipulators performing high speed, high
precision tasks.

End point control is the key to precision and to the development of quick,
lightweight robots; because without it, robots must be made very stiff
(and therefore very heavy) so that end point locations can be inferred
accurately from joint angles.  This makes for slow, clumsy movement.

The reason end point control is not yet available in robots is that when
control torque at one end of a series of links is based on feedback from
the other end, any compliance in the series -- in the drive system and in
the beam elements -- makes the system inherently unstable.  To date, this
problem has not been solved.  We intend to solve it.

We havE already accomplished rapid end point control of a single, very
flexible (0.5 Hz.) experimental manipulator arm using optical sensing
of end point location.  We are now beginning precision pick-and-place
operations with our flexible arm.  We have also nearly finished
construction of a two-link version.  Both flexible arms operate in the
horizontal plane where gravity does not affect operation.

In the research proposed here, we first plan to extend the end-point
control of flexible manipulator systems to the vertical plane, with
gravity acting, and to full three-dimensional operation.  Manipulator
arms with both lumped and distributed compliance will be built.  Next,
fundamentad Research into the capabilities and Limitations of End-
point-controlled flExible robots wilh be conducted theOretically and
expeRimentally.  Fundamentad design questions concernine weieht,
flexibility, power consumptiOn, controller @

would depend on knowledge of affiliates and
on studies already done by affiliates of their needs; 
Center participants bring to automation and many past discussions with those in industry.
Applications assessment would remain a continuing background activity
throughout the duration of the Center. 
Students and staff will develop intimate knowledge of applications problems
in special cases.  In the past, it has been found that students turn
formal knowledge into profound physical understanding by working in
industry in summer programs.  Students and staff develop applications
focus by consulting.  It requires considerable effort to get information
essential to assessment, information described above:
specifications, analysis of tradeoffs, abstraction
of problems to a few crucial subproblems, economic justification, and
competitive technology.  
Applications problems and robotics capabilities 
will be selected for further study if they satisfy these criteria:

\CResearch Plan

\JProposed research would evaluate AL for domains of aerospace assemblies,
airframes, propulsion systems, and avionics.
A few such assemblies may be done in the laboratory.  Others will be 
analyzed by programming component operations.
These exercises will provide detailed evaluation of what capabilities are
required in AL for aerospace assemblies.  They will be useful in
evaluating requirements of any programming system for aerospace assembly, e.g. 
the MCL system*  AL development has focussed on robotq in assembly where the hardest
problems are found and the greatest capabilities are required.  However, AL is
equally useful for simpler assembly devices, and for materials handling and
other applications.\.

\JIt is intended to investigate what is found clumsy and difficult in programming
those assembly examples, to add fundamental new operations where they may be
necessary, and to make simplifications where they can be made
in the programming interface.  It is also intended to aid in the engineering
of AL for
distribution, to provide for developments in connection with distribution,
including interfacing one or two new robots, and to respond to problems
encountered by users.  We hope to arrange that a firm take over distribution,
maintenance, modification, and support of AL.
Licensing arrangements are being negotiated with Hewlett-Packard
for their internal use,
and there is strong interest from another  firm.  SRI has an interest in
adopting AL.  Collaboration with SRI would augment development of AL.\.

\JWhen a new programmable device is introduced great difficulty is usually
encountered in integratine it into a system.  The problem o@_AS]i∃KeCi%]N~∃9KnAI∃mSGKLAS\AM←Mio¬eJAQ¬fAYCIOCYr↓EKK\↓g←Ym∃HXAEUhAEk%YIS]≤AKYK

A key issue in flexible fixturing is incorporating many different simple devices
or complex  robots  and  sensing  devices  with  ease;  another  issue  is
programming and controlling cooperating, multiple fixturing devices.
For choosing appropriate freedoms and mobilities and for commanding desired 
fixturing motions of distributed degrees of freedom,
the analysis of [Salisbury 81] is an effective starting place.
Another issue is real-time collision avoidance of multiple, moving manipulators;
a real-time collision avoidance system has been demonstrated at Stanford,
and plans are to extend it to multiple manipulators.\.
ACRONYM

\JWe propose to interface ACRONYM with AL  as an advanced integrated assembly 
system with sensory control which couples complementary sensors including
visual sensing, force and contact sensing, and proximity sensing.
ACRONYM adds geometric modeling, simulation, and planning.
ACRONYM will provide a manipulation system with capabilities for
programming from a CAD data base, off-line programming, 
the programming of sensory control tasks, and automated planning
of parts mating.\.

\JWe propose to develop hardware and software for visual control of assembly.
ACRONYM will be the basis forvisual control in applications from those
listedpreviously, including:T.
\ja) visual control forincreased accuracy In drilling and riveTing;\.	
\jb) tracking of swinging cranes;\.
\jc) visual control of parts mating of 3d parts;\.
\jd) visual Control of fitup of sheet matal assembly;\.¬
\je) handlIng fLexible objects like wire.\.¬

CooRracing and breakpoints.  Currently, the DART group is 
investigating ways of generalizing SHAM to work with partial information
and to choose the level of simulation automatically.\.

\JFinally, there is the diagnostic program itself.  DART first
accepts from the field engineer a statement of some "symptom", i.e. a
piece of expected behavior that did not occur.  By looking at its
design model, it figures out why the behavior was expected.
Generally, the resulting "justification" mentions a number of
components, all of which are implicated by the absence of the expected
behavior.  In order to discriminate the possibilities, DART again uses its
design model to devise tests for various subsets of these components
and by carrying out these tests pinpoints the malfunctioning component.

One important consequence of the DART approach is the ease with 
which new diagnosticians can be built.  If a designer utilizes an 
advanced Computer-Aided Design system, a full model of his design will be
on-line when he is done.  Thiq model can then be passEd as data to 
DART.  A similar apprkach couLd also be taken with test generation 
and manufacturing tape creation.\.

\F2\CResearch Directions

\F0\JAlthough the DART project has met its goal of building an
automated diagnostician, several problems remain to be solved.  These
include further topics in representation, test generation, fault 
circumvention, design for testability, and fault tolerant design.

The open problems in representation have to do with extending
DDL to new design types.  While the DDL formalism is appropriate for
the description of devices other than digital circuits, its vocabulary
has not been developed except in that direction.  For example, there 
are no terms for describing feedback or oscillation in analog circuits,
and there are no terms for describing fluid flow, spatial organization,
and the other topics relevant to non-electronic devices.  The DART program 
in no way depends on the current DDL vocabulary, only its formalism.
Consequently, if the vocabulary can be extended to handle these additional
topics$ The program wouLd be applIcable to These other typeq of deviCes
as well.\.

unstable.  When we can achieve the astute use of end-point sensing and
feedback, this will make possible a new level of precision in manipulator
use, and open up many new areas for manipulator application.

The Stanford Guidance and Control Laboratory has pursued fundamental
understanding of basic control problems since 1960.  During this time
we have gained a strong capability in optimal control, both analog
and digital, and have verified theoretical results by numerous experimental
demonstrations (Refs. 1-10).  Since our beginning, a prime area of interest
has been the control of flexible vehicles and beams (1-5).  More recently,
we have also developed new insights into the problems of robust control
with uncertain parameters (8,9), and real-time dynamic estimations (10).
Current experimental research includes control of a very flexible manipulator
using end-point sensing (5), as well as an experiment demonstrating active
damping of structural vibrations using a non-colocated sensor (7).\.

\JThe Stanford Artificial Intelligence Laboratory has carried out basic
research in robotics since 1965.  We havE designed and built two robot
manipulators, two programming languages for robots, and several force
sensors, together with kinematics, force control, and a strong program
in computer vision (11-17).  This work led to a successful industrial
rkbot, the Unimate PUMA, and its software system VAL.  Wa think that

\JI. Definition of the problem.  Manufacturing Science must include the
science of control of mechanisms and, in the effort to increase performance
while reducing costs, most of these mechanisms will display significant
flexibility.  The problem exists both in the machine tool used to make the
product and in the product itself.  For example, the servomechanism used
for positioning a computer disk head must move the arm to which the head
is attached and this arm has a frequency of resonant vibration due to its
flexibility that must be considered as part of the feedback control design.
FurthermoRe, because of manufacturing tolerances and environmental changes,
the resonant frequency will vary from unit to unit and will vary over time
in a given
unit.  Similar↓KMMK

\JTo control a system such as (1) several schemes have been devised.  These
may be classified as (Astrom 1981)\.

	1) Gain Scheduling
	2) Model-Reference Adaptive Control (MRAC)
	3) Self-Tuning Regulators (STR)

\JIn gain scheduling, the parameters O are found to depend on one or two
critical environmental factors such as temperature, or fuel level in a
rocket, or in aircraft, dynamic pressure and an independent measurement
of these cRitical parameters is made.  Beforehand, a design of the control

disadvantages of adaptive control for flexible mechanisms have been revealed.
A fourth order model consisting of two masses connected by a structure of
unknown stiffness and damping is to be controlled by  an actuator which applies
force on one mass based on position information from a sensor on the second
mass.  Because of the ease with which the STR algorithms can be understood
and the acknowledged equivalence between the STR and the MRAC, a version of the
STR was simulated.  The original algorithm required that the system have no
zeroes in the unstable region of the complex plane.  Because most dynamic
models when sampled for digital control, do not have this property, an
algorithm based on pole assignment with explicit identification of the system
parameter O was used.  The conclusions may be summarized as follows:\.

\Jo In a wide range of circumstances including jump changes in the system
parameterq, the control maintained stability and abter about 40 samples
responded as if the parameters were known.

o When unstructured uncertainty in the form of an additional secOnd order
term (as might arise from a second resonance) was a`ded, the algorithm
converged and, with some slight deterioration in response, continued to
control the system.

o When the second resonance was given zero damping, the control was unstable
and the adaptive algorithm failed.

o During step changes when the parameter has not converged, the control
signal (in simulation) underwent extremedy large excursions before it
converged to good control.

o Even when the system was changed to an open-loop unstable c@=]ISi%←\XA%HAiQ∀~∃k]MiekGQkeKH↓k]GKIiCS]QrAoCLAUOhαβS?=∧cπK∨*aβS#*β∂?;'∪?1β>Eβ↔4∧f.∨M≡f*UβC!↓αE.%∃42P)→yzv 4pεA←L↓iQSf↓aeKY%[S@;∂∪eβO'+∪eβ>+K∃β∧ε&}n≤8

diaphragm position to changas In the period of an astable multivibrator.	
The diglicon
diaphragm pressure transducers are proposed.  Diaphragm thicknesses of 5-10
microns and diameters of less than 0.5-1.0 mm are quite feasible.  The minute
values of transduction capacitance associated with these devices mandate that
on-chip electronics be used to buffer the transduction capacitance.
This buffering isolates the transduction capacitance per se from any off-chip
wire or cable
capacitances whose relatively massive values and uncontrolled variations
would otherwise totally swamp the transduction mechanism.

The silicon diaphragm will be anisotropically etched using either wet
chemical or dry reactive ion etching techniques.  The transduction capacitor
electrodes will be metal plates.  One plate will be evaporated on a silicon
dioxide layer covering the "inside" of the diaphragm.  The second plate will
be evaporated on a glass cap which will be anodically bonded to the silicon
chip.  The critical spacing between the plates will be determined by a patterned
thin film of metal separating the silicon chip and its glass cap.  Reliable
methods for attaching electrical leads to the chip-cap assembly must be
developed.

Integrated circuit batch fabrication technology will be used. Thus an
entire 75 mm silicon wafer will be "covered" with integrated sensors during
the fabrication sequence.  Thus, virtually any number of pressure transducers
along with additional temperature, light, strain and other transducers plus
associated circuitry can be included in the same sensor chip.\.

The method used for the comparison is holographic interferometry.  The part-to
be manufacturing is being illuminated by a coherent wave and a holoeram is
created using an appropriate reference wave.  This hologram is superimposed
on the hologram of the masterpart and an interferogram results.  The
interferogram contains information about the discrepancies between the

granted access to SUMEX.  The SUMEX facility supports local and dial-access terminals,
ARPAnet, and other national networks.  Additional equipment associated with SUMEX include
a DECSYSTEM-2020 and a DEC VAX-11/780.  These several systems are also on
the Computer Science Ethernet local network.\.

\CCSL

\JClose collaboration is maintained between the Electrical Engineering department and
the Computer Science department.  Research in hardware and software
computer systems is done in the Computer Systems Laboratory (CSL).  CSL is
a laboratory of the Electrical Engineering Department populated by faculty
from both Electrical Engineering and Computer Science.  CSL operates
a VAX-11/780 system for VLSI system design.  Also, CSL has a variety
of small computer systems.\.

\CNetwork

\JA BBN TIP (Honeywell DDP-516) provides connection to
the ARPANET.  Systems are interfaced to a local network, the
Ethernet, which connects SAIL, SCORE, many DEC VAX systems, DEC PDP11s,
and a network file server.

The Computer Science Department also operates several Xerox Alto personal
computers, linked together by the Ethernet communications network.  Xerox
has provided these Altos, a Dover printer, and a network file system, as
an equipment grant to the Computer Science Department.\.

\CPlans

\JStanford has developed the SUN terminal, a high resolution graphic display,
800x1000, with a Motorola 68000 processor.  Extensive software support
based on UNIX and C are being developed. 

Computer Science and CSL plan to acquire 35 SUN terminals,
10 VAX 11/750s and 15 LISP machines in 1982.  A large file server for the
entire SU network will provide economies of scale in storage.
Smaller file servers for clusterq of SUN terminals are planned.  Since
cluster file servers are based on large disks, they are more economical
and provide higher performance than small disks for individual SUN machines.\.

\C\F2VISION AND ROBOTICS EXPERIIENTAL SYSTEM\F0

\JTwo Unimate 600 (PUMA) arms and 
a pair of Stanford Scheinman arms are used for experiments in assembly.
The Stanford arms were designed and built here, the first in 1970, the second
in 1972. Hands and sensors for the PUMA arms are planned.
One Stanford arm has a wrist force sensor which measures three components
of force and three components of torque.  It measures 300gm weight to within 5 gms.
There is a simple program which automatically  calibrates the wrist.
Two pairs of force sensing fingers have been
built, the first measures one component of force, the other measures three components.
These fingers are being interfaced to the arms.  Their sensitivity is .1 gm or so.\.

\JThe assembly workstation has a flexible and accurate setup capability,
with accurate locating holes and screw holes for clamps.  A computer controlled
vise (with position feedback) and screwdriver (with velocity feedback) are used 
for assemblies.  More assembly tools are  planned, including a moving belt.\.

\JA PDP11/45 with 124k wds of memory controls the arms.  It is interfaced
to the KL10 I/O bus and the Ethernet.
A PDP11/60 is being interfaced for real-time arm control, with the PDP11/45
running the AL system.\.

\JA pair of solid state cameras, GE TN2500, will be used for stereo vision.
There is also a Fairchild CCD camera with resolution 380x480.
There is a vision module, Machine Intelligence VS-100, connected to a
GE TN2500 solid state camera together with a light  table.  It analyzes
silhouettes of objects for classification and location, and is coupled
to the AL system.
There is an Optronics C4500 digitizer for digitizing color photographs.\.

\JA Grinnell GMR-270 display system with 512x512 resolution with 36 bits per 
pixel provides gray scale and graphics.  It 
is shared among users by a video switch.  The system accomodates various combinations
of users: four users with 9 bit black and white
images, two users with two 9 bit channels each, or one user with 3 
color channels of 9 bits each plus
another user with ablack andwhite channel Are soma oF the possIbhe Configurations.
The display systemhas an arithmeTic processor and tv digiTizer.\.¬
