Book Task Based Global Motion Planning of Multiple Manipulators in Time varying Environments

Download or read book Task Based Global Motion Planning of Multiple Manipulators in Time varying Environments written by Achint Aggarwal and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The field of robotics is clearly seen to be heading towards a world in which humans and robots can exist together safely and coherently be it in industries, households or battlefields. The primary obstacle for this harmonistic coexistence is the inability of robots to interact effectively and safely with the environment. Human machine interaction still seems to be far off until the development of effective and reliable robots that understand their environment and interact with it safely. The application of robots in industrial environments has over the last two decades received a significant impetus, such that the robots can now perform pre-programmed and repetitive low-valued tasks almost to perfection. However, the need of the hour is to make robots go beyond this level and practically start augmenting human capability and reducing human drudgery even outside the factory floor. This makes robot motion planning one of the most important areas in robotics research. Without a motion planner for manipulators and mobile robots, human operators have to constantly monitor and define their detailed motion. An automatic motion planner will relieve the operators from this tedious job and enable them to exercise control at a supervisory level. This in turn, increases efficiency by eliminating human errors. Further, path planning can be considered to be the backbone of any motion planning algorithm. An efficient path planner with added performance criteria and constraints makes an efficient motion planner. This specific research effort of developing a motion planner falls within the broader goal of developing a safety architecture that enables high performance intelligent machines that coexist and cooperate safely with other systems and humans. A large body of research in the area of robotics focuses on the path planning of mobile robots while the manipulators' ability to effectively operate autonomously in cluttered and dynamically changing environments stays relatively under explored. This work will rely on the past achievements in collision detection, obstacle avoidance and motion planning of the Robotics Research Group (RRG) at the University of Texas at Austin (UT Austin). This area of research offers chances for a wide breadth of advancement in robotics as it can be applied to traditional stationary robots, both redundant and non-redundant manipulators, as well as to mobile manipulators where both the path of the manipulator itself and the path of the manipulator's mobile base must be accounted for when attempting to plan collision free paths.

Book Principles of Robot Motion

Download or read book Principles of Robot Motion written by Howie Choset and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2005-05-20 with total page 642 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A text that makes the mathematical underpinnings of robot motion accessible and relates low-level details of implementation to high-level algorithmic concepts. Robot motion planning has become a major focus of robotics. Research findings can be applied not only to robotics but to planning routes on circuit boards, directing digital actors in computer graphics, robot-assisted surgery and medicine, and in novel areas such as drug design and protein folding. This text reflects the great advances that have taken place in the last ten years, including sensor-based planning, probabalistic planning, localization and mapping, and motion planning for dynamic and nonholonomic systems. Its presentation makes the mathematical underpinnings of robot motion accessible to students of computer science and engineering, rleating low-level implementation details to high-level algorithmic concepts.

Book Dynamic Neural Networks for Robot Systems  Data Driven and Model Based Applications

Download or read book Dynamic Neural Networks for Robot Systems Data Driven and Model Based Applications written by Long Jin and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2024-07-24 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Neural network control has been a research hotspot in academic fields due to the strong ability of computation. One of its wildly applied fields is robotics. In recent years, plenty of researchers have devised different types of dynamic neural network (DNN) to address complex control issues in robotics fields in reality. Redundant manipulators are no doubt indispensable devices in industrial production. There are various works on the redundancy resolution of redundant manipulators in performing a given task with the manipulator model information known. However, it becomes knotty for researchers to precisely control redundant manipulators with unknown model to complete a cyclic-motion generation CMG task, to some extent. It is worthwhile to investigate the data-driven scheme and the corresponding novel dynamic neural network (DNN), which exploits learning and control simultaneously. Therefore, it is of great significance to further research the special control features and solve challenging issues to improve control performance from several perspectives, such as accuracy, robustness, and solving speed.

Book Motion Planning in Dynamic Environments

Download or read book Motion Planning in Dynamic Environments written by Kikuo Fujimura and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Computer Science Workbench is a monograph series which will provide you with an in-depth working knowledge of current developments in computer technology. Every volume in this series will deal with a topic of importance in computer science and elaborate on how you yourself can build systems related to the main theme. You will be able to develop a variety of systems, including computer software tools, computer graphics, computer animation, database management systems, and computer-aided design and manufacturing systems. Computer Science Workbench represents an important new contribution in the field of practical computer technology. TOSIYASU L. KUNII To my parents Kenjiro and Nori Fujimura Preface Motion planning is an area in robotics that has received much attention recently. Much of the past research focuses on static environments - various methods have been developed and their characteristics have been well investigated. Although it is essential for autonomous intelligent robots to be able to navigate within dynamic worlds, the problem of motion planning in dynamic domains is relatively little understood compared with static problems.

Book Control Problems in Robotics

Download or read book Control Problems in Robotics written by Antonio Bicchi and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-07-12 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ?eld of robotics continues to ?ourish and develop. In common with general scienti?c investigation, new ideas and implementations emerge quite spontaneously and these are discussed, used, discarded or subsumed at c- ferences, in the reference journals, as well as through the Internet. After a little more maturity has been acquired by the new concepts, then archival publication as a scienti?c or engineering monograph may occur. The goal of the Springer Tracts in Advanced Robotics is to publish new developments and advances in the ?elds of robotics research – rapidly and informally but with a high quality. It is hoped that prospective authors will welcome the opportunity to publish a structured presentation of some of the emerging robotics methodologies and technologies. The edited volume by Antonio Bicchi, Henrik Christensen and Domenico Prattichizzo is the outcome of the second edition of a workshop jointly sponsored by the IEEE Control Systems Society and the IEEE Robotics and Automation Society. Noticeably, the previous volume was published in the Springer Lecture Notes on Control and Information Sciences. The authors are recognised as leading scholars internationally. A n- ber of challenging control problems on the forefront of today’s research in robotics and automation are covered, with special emphasis on vision, sensory-feedback control, human-centered robotics, manipulation, planning, ?exible and cooperative robots, assembly systems.
