Abstract:

Aimed at 9-degree of freedom(DOF) hyper-redundant module robot in intra-vehicular robot system, attention is given to the avoiding joint limits as an optimal mark. Two different iterative algorithms considering fault-tolerance for trajectory planning of redundant robot in Cartesian space are then proposed by using the method of differential locomotion. The first algorithm is for linear-path in which the pose of manipulator can be changed, the second is for circular-path in the plane decided by three noncollinear arbitrary points in the space. Experiments on the specimen robot platform are performed to validate the above algorithms. And the hyper-redundant robot’s actions, such as pulling drawers, grapping club-shaped stuff along linear-path and opening doors along circular-path are realized.

Key words: hyper-redundance, avoiding joint limits, fault-tolerance, trajectory planning, optimal
