An MPC-based controller for a 8-DoF motion simulator at Max-Planck Institute for Biological Cybernetics based on a sequential robot (MPI CyberMotion https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ThkymYRP1g8) was run for a first time. To simplify testing and achieve reasonable performance, only one degree of freedom was used. A sinusoidal acceleration profile was commanded and simulator axes positions and velocities as well as real platform acceleration were measured. The implementation and stability issues are discussed.
