Trajectory planning in robotic continuous-path applications

摘要

Trajectory planning of robot motions for continuous-path operations is formulated in configuration space, resorting to the intrinsic properties of the path traced by point of the end effector. It is shown that, by referring the orientation of the end effector to a unique orthogonal frame defined at every point of the aforementioned path, a systematic procedure for trajectory planning in configuration space is derived. The computations required to determine the angular velocity and angular acceleration of the path frame reduce to computing the Darboux vector of the path and its time derivative.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
