Collision Avoidance and Handling for a Mobile Manipulator
نویسندگان
چکیده
In general service robots move autonomously in partially known environments. This paper proposes a collision avoidance and collision handling scheme to move through such working areas. Both schemes are implemented in a single paradigm: artificial and measured forces are combined, resulting in force/torque vectors. The force/torque vectors are superimposed and the robot’s joint velocities are determined. We present results from our experimental system consisting of a 8 degrees of freedom manipulator arm mounted on a mobile platform. In the illustrated example, a human enforces collisions by touching the robot. The robot evades the human’s touch without robot self-collisions.

Optimal Trajectory Planning of a Mobile Robot with Spatial Manipulator For Spatial Obstacle Avoidance
Mobile robots that consist of a mobile platform with one or many manipulators mounted on it are of great interest in a number of applications. Combination of platform and manipulator causes robot operates in extended work space. The analysis of these systems includes kinematics redundancy that makes more complicated problem. However, it gives more feasibility to robotic systems because of the e...
متن کاملModeling of a Mobile Manipulator for Redundancy Resolution
Purpose Recently, various applications of robotic systems to construction sites have been tried. In this research, a mobile platform-based serial manipulator, the so called ‘mobile manipulator’, is employed for construction tasks such as material handling, beam assembly, welding, and so on. Generally, a serial manipulator has 6 DOF (degrees of freedom). The mobile manipulator suggested in this ...
متن کاملTrajectory Modification Using Elastic Force for Collision Avoidance of a Mobile Manipulator
This paper proposes a method for collision avoidance of a mobile manipulator. The method deals with the problem of driving a mobile manipulator from a starting configuration to a goal configuration avoiding obstacles. It modifies planned trajectory at every sampling time using elastic force and potential field force. It puts way poses throughout a planned trajectory, and the trajectory modifica...
متن کاملManipulator-Based Grasping Pose Selection by means of Task-Objective Optimisation
This paper presents an alternative to inverse kinematics for mobile manipulator grasp pose selection which integrates obstacle avoidance and joint limit checking into the pose selection process. Given the Cartesian coordinates of an object in 3D space and its normal vector, end-effector pose objectives including collision checking and joint limit checks are used to create a series of cost funct...
متن کاملSmooth Jerk-Bounded Optimal Path Planning of Tricycle Wheeled Mobile Manipulators in the Presence of Environmental Obstacles
In this work, a computational algorithm is developed for the smooth‐jerk optimal path planning of tricycle wheeled mobile manipulators in an obstructed environment. Due to a centred orientable wheel, the tricycle mobile manipulator exhibits more steerability and manoeuvrability over traditional mobile manipulators, especially in the presence of environmental obst...
