This document discusses control problems for floating-base manipulators. It begins with an introduction and definition of variables. It then covers inverse kinematics, possible kinematic solutions using behavioral control, possible dynamic solutions using virtual decomposition, and perspectives on simulations and experiments. The document outlines various tasks that could be controlled, such as end-effector position and orientation, joint limits, drag minimization, and obstacle avoidance. It also discusses using behavioral control approaches inspired by animal behavior to combine multiple tasks.
