– Borrowing a concept from hydrodynamic analysis, this paper presents stream functions which satisfy Laplace’s equation as a local-minima free method for producing potential-...
Abstract— Redundant manipulators have some advantages when compared with classical arms because they allow the trajectory optimization, both on the free space and on the presence...
As a general framework to determine a collision-free feedback motion strategies, the Random Neighborhood Graph (RNG) approach [19] defines a global navigation function over an ap...
This paper describes some initial steps towards sensor based path planning in an unknown static environment. The method is a based on a sensor-based incremental construction of a o...
- Parallel robots admit generally several solutions to the direct kinematics problem. The aspects are associated with the maximal singularity free domains without any singular conf...
