N2 - Due to its practical applicability, recently several algorithms for robot synchronization have been developed in the literature. However, the focus of these control schemes has primarily been on joint-space control and in the absence of communication unreliabilities between the agents. In this paper, we study the problem of task space synchronization and trajectory tracking for heterogeneous robots under dynamic uncertainties. Exploiting passivity based synchronization results developed previously, a new control algorithm is proposed to guarantee task space synchronization for a group of robotic manipulators. Both non-redundant and redundant robots are considered and the proposed scheme is validated by a numerical example.
