An exploratory haptic based robotic path planning and training tool

摘要

In this paper we present a concept of a versatile 'haptics' based robotic path planning and operator training tool. Some of the earlier work in the area of robotic path planning has been visited. A suitable force model has been developed and implemented to test the method. As a first step, a system for the training of machine operators and path planners is developed. Experiments are carried out to prove the hypothesis. Preliminary results from these experiments have been presented.
