A basic motion planning problem is to compute a continuous path that connects a start configuration S and a goal configuration G, while avoiding collision with known obstacles. The robot and obstacle geometry is described in a 2D or 3D workspace , while the motion is represented as a path in (possibly higher-dimensional) configuration space .
Path planning is realized with propagating wavefronts. The wavefront expansion algorithm is a specialized potential field path planner with breadth-first search to avoid local minima. [1] [2] It uses a growing circle around the robot. The nearest neighbors are analyzed first and then the radius of the circle is extended to distant regions. [3]
Real-Time Path Planning is a term used in robotics that consists of motion planning methods that can adapt to real time changes in the environment. This includes everything from primitive algorithms that stop a robot when it approaches an obstacle to more complex algorithms that continuously takes in information from the surroundings and creates a plan to avoid obstacles.
The probabilistic roadmap [1] planner is a motion planning algorithm in robotics, which solves the problem of determining a path between a starting configuration of the robot and a goal configuration while avoiding collisions. An example of a probabilistic random map algorithm exploring feasible paths around a number of polygonal obstacles
2005 DARPA Grand Challenge winner Stanley performed SLAM as part of its autonomous driving system. A map generated by a SLAM Robot. Simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) is the computational problem of constructing or updating a map of an unknown environment while simultaneously keeping track of an agent's location within it.
When planning, agents have to avoid collisions with paths of other agents with a higher priority that have already computed their plans. Finding a solution for the MAPF problem in such setting corresponds to the shortest path problem in a time-expansion graph. [9] A time-expansion graph is a graph that takes into account the passing of time.
Depending on the configuration, open-chain robotic manipulators require a degree of trajectory optimization. For instance, a robotic arm with 7 joints and 7 links (7-DOF) is a redundant system where one cartesian position of an end-effector can correspond to an infinite number of joint angle positions, thus this redundancy can be used to optimize a trajectory to, for example, avoid any ...
It also provides software libraries for automatic 2D/3D sensor calibration, process path/motion planning, applications like Scan-N-Plan, developer tools like the Qt Creator ROS Plugin, and training curriculum that is specific to the needs of manufacturers. ROS-I is supported by an international Consortium of industry and research members.
