The essential problem in controlling robots is to make the manipulator follow a desired trajectory. This paper presents the genetic algorithm tuned fuzzy PID controller (GAFPID) to follow the desired trajectory for a three degree of freedom (DOF) robot arm. Numerical simulation using the dynamic model of three DOF robot arm shows the effectiveness of the approach in trajectory tracking problems. Comparative...
