It is studied the implementation of fractional-order algorithms in the position/force control of two robots holding an object. The experiments reveal that fractional algorithms lead to performances superior to classical integer-order controllers.engCooperative robotsFractional calculusControlFractional control of two arms working in cooperationconference object10.3182/20060719-3-PT-4902.00060
