This book expands on the traditional approach to path planning for two independent robotic systems by exploring the application of coordinated motion planning. This approach is built on the notion of free configuration space, the geometrical representation of the space in which robotic systems can reside without colliding with obstacles. Typically, this space is broken into a cell decomposition of small, simple cells in order to analyze the connectivity of the space and plan collision-free motions. The technique this book presents improves on previous methods by decomposing the free space into much smaller cells and demonstrates that, in general, the complexity of coordinated motion planning for two systems with two degrees of freedom is nearly quadratic. This method is examined in the particular case of Stanford arms and in the case of two discs, matching and extending previous results obtained by other methods. The author also discusses how the technique can be extended to a variety of other systems and motions. The result is a fairly simple general technique for obtaining efficient coordinated motion-planning algorithms for a wide range of robotics applications. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
