Hybrid Task Constrained Planner for Robot Manipulator in Confined Environment
share
Trajectory generation in confined environment is crucial for wide adoption of intelligent robot manipulators. In this paper, we propose a novel motion planning approach for redundant robot arms that uses a hybrid optimization framework to search for optimal trajectories in both the configuration space and null space, generating high-quality trajectories that satisfy task constraints and collision avoidance constraints, while also avoiding local optima for incremental planners. Our approach is evaluated in an onsite polishing scenario with various robot and workpiece configurations, demonstrating significant improvements in trajectory quality compared to existing methods. The proposed approach has the potential for broad applications in industrial tasks involving redundant robot arms.
