Abstract

An example system may include a motor, a position-controlled motor controller configured to drive the motor to a commanded position with a characteristic acceleration profile, and a control system. The control system may be configured to determine a target velocity for the motor. The control system may be additionally configured to determine a target position that, when commanded to the motor controller, is predicted to cause the motor controller to drive the motor with the target velocity at a target time point by driving the motor with the characteristic acceleration profile. Further, the control system may be configured to provide an instruction for execution by the position-controlled motor controller, the instruction may be configured to cause the motor controller to drive the motor to the target position.
