This video demonstrates the operation of a macro-mini robot for physical human-robot interaction. The macro-mini system consists of a (6 3)-DoF hybrid parallel robot and a 3-DoF gantry system. No force/torque sensor is used. The system can take advantage of the large workspace (the macro robot) and of the fast response (the mini robot). Besides, the hybrid parallel robot provides a large range of possible rotations and the gripper is controlled using the robot’s redundant DoFs (no gripper actuat
