Efficient Path Planning for Highly Articulated Robots using Adaptive Forward Dynamics
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present an efficient path planning algorithm for highly articulated robots with many degrees of freedom (DoFs). Our approach takes into account physical and geometric constraints and formulates the problem as constrained dynamic simulation. We simulate the motion of the robot using a sub-linear time adaptive forward dynamics algorithm. We also present fast collision detection and response computation algorithms for articulated models. Our planner computes an initial path for the articulated robot and refines the path by performing bounded-error dynamic simulation to ensure non-penetration. In practice, our planner scales well with the number of DoFs for highly articulated robots. We demonstrate its performance on models with hundreds and thousands of DoFs.

Adaptive Dynamics with Efficient Contact Handling for Articulated Robots
We present a novel adaptive dynamics algorithm with efficient contact handling for articulated robots. Our algorithm automatically computes a fraction of the joints whose motion provides a good approximation to overall robot dynamics. We extend Featherstone’s Divide-and-Conquer algorithm and are able to efficiently handle all contacts and collisions with the obstacles in the environment. Overal...
متن کاملAdaptive Voltage-based Control of Direct-drive Robots Driven by Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors
Tracking control of the direct-drive robot manipulators in high-speed is a challenging problem. The Coriolis and centrifugal torques become dominant in the high-speed motion control. The dynamical model of the robotic system including the robot manipulator and actuators is highly nonlinear, heavily coupled, uncertain and computationally extensive in non-companion form. In order to overcome thes...
متن کاملPSO-Based Path Planning Algorithm for Humanoid Robots Considering Safety
In this paper we introduce an improvement in the path planning algorithm for the humanoid soccer playing robot which uses Ferguson splines and PSO (Particle Swarm Optimization). The objective of the algorithm is to find a path through other playing robots to the ball, which should be as short as possible and also safe enough. Ferguson splines create preliminary paths using random generated para...
متن کاملAn Adaptive-Robust Control Approach for Trajectory Tracking of two 5 DOF Cooperating Robot Manipulators Moving a Rigid Payload
In this paper, a dual system consisting of two 5 DOF (RRRRR) robot manipulators is considered as a cooperative robotic system used to manipulate a rigid payload on a desired trajectory between two desired initial and end positions/orientations. The forward and inverse kinematic problems are first solved for the dual arm system. Then, dynamics of the system and the relations between forces/momen...
متن کاملReal-time randomized path planning for robot navigation
Mobile robots often find themselves in a situation where they must find a trajectory to another position in their environment, subject to constraints posed by obstacles and the capabilities of the robot itself. This is the problem of planning a path through a continuous domain, for which several approaches have been developed. Each has some limitations however, including requiring state discret...
