Redundant manipulators are usually required to perform tasks in the operational space, but collision-free path planning is computed in the configuration space. Limiting the deviation with respect to the collision-free configuration-space trajectory may allow the robot to avoid collisions without modifying the primary task. This letter proposes a method to guarantee that the solution of the inverse kinematic problem deviates from the nominal joint-space trajectory less than a desired threshold. The excursion limitation is ensured by means of linear constraints and the automatic regulation of the weights of secondary tasks. Numerical and experimental results prove the validness of the proposed approach.

Abstract
Redundant manipulators are usually required to perform tasks in the operational space, but collision-free path planning is computed in the configuration space. Limiting the deviation with respect to the collision-free configuration-space trajectory may allow the robot to avoid collisions without modifying the primary task. This letter proposes a method to guarantee that the solution of the inverse kinematic problem deviates from the nominal joint-space trajectory less than a desired threshold. The excursion limitation is ensured by means of linear constraints and the automatic regulation of the weights of secondary tasks. Numerical and experimental results prove the validness of the proposed approach.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
