The primary objective of this study is to enable the end effector of robot manipulators driven by brushless DC motors (BLDC), subjected to model uncertainties, to track the desired trajectory. Direct control in task space, with the primary goal of minimizing the tracking error of the end effector, is favored. Besides, incorporating actuator dynamics (AD)actuator dynamics (AD) into control synthesis and stability analysis is intended to enhance the sensitivity in terms of positioning and the reliability of robot manipulators. Consideration is given to uncertainties in both the robot manipulator and AD to achieve enhanced tracking performance. In order to improve the efficiency of the closed-loop control system, uncertainties in the dynamic model and AD were estimated using a self-organized adaptive fuzzy logic (AFL)adaptive fuzzy logic (AFL) framework, and the obtained estimates were applied to the control torque input. In the employed AFL framework, the means and variances of the membership functions (MFs)membership functions (MFs) are updated online in each iteration, enabling a more accurate estimation of uncertainties. The use of the newly created Lyapunov function demonstrates that the closed-loop system is uniformly ultimately bound. Experimental comparisons were conducted on a two-degree-of-freedom planar robot manipulator driven by a BLDC motor to test the applicability of the presented controller.
