Many robot controllers require not only link position measurements but
also link velocity measurements; however, most robotic systems are on
ly equipped with link position measurement devices, To address this pr
oblem, we present an observer-based controller for the link position t
racking, output feedback control of robot manipulators, The approach i
s based on an observed integrator backstepping procedure which allows
us to obtain a semi-global exponential stability result for the link p
osition-velocity tracking error, Implementation of the proposed contro
ller on a two-link direct-drive manipulator produces results which ind
icate good link position tracking performance and robustness against p
ayload variations.
