This paper presents an adaptive reinforcement learning- (ARL-) based motion/force tracking control scheme consisting of the optimal motion dynamic control law and force control scheme for multimanipulator systems. Specifically, a new additional term and appropriate state vector are employed in designing the ARL technique for time-varying dynamical systems with online actor/critic algorithm to be established by minimizing the squared Bellman error. Additionally, the force control law is designed after obtaining the computation of constraint force coefficient by the Moore-Penrose pseudo-inverse matrix. The tracking effectiveness of the ARL-based optimal control is verified in the closed-loop system by theoretical analysis. Finally, simulation studies are conducted on a system of three manipulators to validate the physical realization of the proposed optimal tracking control design.
