Robotics technique involving coordinated control of two robotic arms working together to perform complex manipulation tasks that exceed the capabilities of single-arm systems. Essential for advanced assembly, handling large objects, and human-like dexterous manipulation.

Core Principles

Coordination Strategies

  • Synchronized motion: Both arms moving in coordinated patterns
  • Complementary actions: One arm holding while the other manipulates
  • Parallel operations: Independent but coordinated task execution
  • Sequential handoffs: Object transfer between arms during complex operations

Technical Challenges

  • Temporal synchronization: Ensuring precise timing between arm motions
  • Spatial coordination: Managing workspace overlap
