Sensor based planning for a planar rod robot
نویسندگان
چکیده
Sensor based planning for rod-shaped robots is necessary for the realistic deployment of noncircular symmetric robots into unknown environments. To this end, the rod hierarchical generalized Voronoi graph (rod-HGVG), introduced in this paper, is a roadmap for rod-like robots. A key feature of this roadmap is that it can be incrementally constructed using distance (range) information. This planning paradigm is an extension of previous work on sensor based planning for point robots.

Sensor based planning for a planar rod robot: incremental construction of the planar rod-HGVG
This work considers sensor based motion planning for rod-shaped robots in unknown environments. The motion planning scheme is based on the rod hierarchical generalized Voronoi graph (rod-HGVG). The rod-HGVG is a roadmap for rod-like robots, and is an extension of a prior roadmap for point-like robots. We give an incremental method to construct the rodHGVG, thereby enabling exploration of unknow...
متن کاملSensor-based construction of a retract-like structure for a planar rod robot
Sensor-based planning for rod-shaped robots is necessary for the realistic deployment of noncircularly symmetric robots into unknown environments. Whereas circularly symmetric robots have two-dimensional Euclidean configuration spaces, planar rod robots posses three degrees-of-freedom, two for position and one for orientation, and hence have a three-dimensional configuration space, (2). In this...
متن کاملJi Yeong Lee and Howie Choset S 2 xSensor - based Planning for a Rod - shaped Robot in Three Dimensions : Piecewise
We present a new roadmap for a rod-shaped robot operating in a three-dimensional workspace, whose configuration space is diffeomorphic to R3 × S2. This roadmap is called the rod hierarchical generalized Voronoi graph (rod-HGVG) and can be used to find a path between any two points in an unknown configuration space using only the sensor data. More importantly, the rod-HGVG serves as a basis for ...

متن کاملFlexible Foot/Ankle Based on PKM with Force/Torque Sensor for Humanoid Robot
This paper describes the development of a novel humanoid robot foot/ankle based on an orientation Parallel Kinematic Mechanism for intelligent and flexible control. With three identical Universal-Prismatic-Spherical prismatic-actuated limbs and a central Universal-Revolute passive limb, the PKM can perform three degrees of freedom rotation motions. In order to enable the humanoid robot safely t...
