Heuristic learning for lasso robot

This paper proposes a lasso robot system which has a very light and flexible manipulator and whose workspace is very wide. This system is an approach to solve problems of the conventional rigid manipulator The important point of the system is how to control. For the controller, this paper applies a heuristic method and a learning control while mimicking human behavior. They are based on trial and error. Simulations are performed to show the effectiveness of the heuristic method for the lasso robot.
