Input shaping accomplishes vibration reduction by slightly increasing the acceleration and deceleration periods of the command. The increase in the deceleration period can lead to system overshoot. This paper presents a new class of reduced-overtravel input shapers that are designed to reduce shaper-induced overtravel from human-operator commands. During the development of these new shapers, an expression for shaper-induced overtravel is introduced. This expression is used as an additional constraint in the input-shaper design process to generate the reduced-overtravel shapers. Experiments from a portable bridge crane verify the theoretical predictions of improved performance. Results from a study of eight industrial bridge crane operators indicate that utilizing the new reduced-overtravel input shapers dramatically reduces task completion time, while also improving positioning accuracy.
