Planning Support Contact-Points for Acyclic Motions and Experiments on HRP-2

چکیده
This paper presents improvements in contact-before-motion planning for humanoid robots that enables to find a path in very constrained environments. Starting from our previous work, the main novelties are to use a rough trajectory to drive the search and as a criterion to find new contacts and generate the best nodes first. This way only few nodes are effectively explored, speeding up the planning process. We experience the algorithm on the real humanoid HRP-2 in a complex scenario.

Planning contact supports for acyclic motion with task constraints and experiment on HRP-2
With this paper we focus on one feature of our contact planner, namely the posture generation, that was under-used so far. We describe it carefully and show we can take advantage of the underlying optimization-based scheme to perform richer planning by the introduction of generic tasks that are not related to locomotion. We then apply with success the resulting improved planner to a challenging...
متن کاملPlanning support contact-points for humanoids robots and experiments on HRP-2
This paper deals with the motion planning of a polyarticulated robotic system for which support contact are allowed to occur between any part of the body, and any part of the environment. Starting with a description of the environment and of a target, it computes a sequence of postures that allow our system to reach its target. We describe a very generic architecture of this planner, highly mod...
متن کاملChallenges in Contact-Support Planning for Acyclic Motion of Humanoids and Androids
In order to enhance whole body motion capabilities of humanoids or androids, we study the whole-body contact planning and motion generation problem which allows them taking supports by contacting any possible location on any of their parts, with any permissible location of their surrounding environment. Here, the environment is seen both as (i) a supporting mean, on which supporting motion cont...
متن کاملPlanning contact points for humanoid robots
We present a planner for underactuated hyper-redundant robots, such as humanoid robots, for which the movement can only be initiated by taking contacts with the environment. We synthesize our previous work on the subject and go further into details to give an in-depth description of the contact planning problem and the mechanisms of our contact planner. We highlight the structure of the problem...
متن کاملGeneration of whole-body optimal dynamic multi-contact motions
We propose a method to plan optimal whole-body dynamic motion in multi-contact non-gaited transitions. Using a B-spline time parameterization for the active joints, we turn the motion-planning problem into a semi-infinite programming formulation that is solved by nonlinear optimization techniques. Our main contribution lies in producing constraintsatisfaction guaranteed motions for any time gri...
