Calibrated Dynamic Modeling for Force and Payload Estimation in Hydraulic Machinery
Accurate real-time estimation of end effector interaction forces in hydraulic excavators is a key enabler for advanced automation in heavy machinery. Accurate knowledge of these forces allows improved, precise grading and digging maneuvers. To address these challenges, we introduce a high-accuracy, retrofittable 2D force- and payload estimation algorithm that does not impose additional requirements on the operator regarding trajectory, acceleration or the use of the slew joint. The approach is …
