Abstract

See full text

A redundant robot control scheme is provided for avoiding obstacles in a workspace during motion of an end effector along a preselected trajectory by stopping motion of the critical point on the robot closest to the obstacle when the distance therebetween is reduced to a predetermined sphere of influence surrounding the obstacle. Algorithms are provided for conveniently determining the critical point and critical distance.
