TRAJECTORY PLANNING SYSTEMS AND METHODS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18146079 titled 'TRAJECTORY PLANNING SYSTEMS AND METHODS

Simplified Explanation: The patent application describes techniques for trajectory planning of robots, specifically collaborative robots (cobots). A controller of a robot includes a path planner, a trajectory generator, and a trajectory controller to determine and control the robot's trajectory.

  • The path planner identifies waypoints defining a path between the initial and goal poses of the robot.
  • The trajectory generator calculates a trajectory based on the waypoints and specific trajectory criteria.
  • The trajectory controller generates a control signal to guide the robot along the determined trajectory.

Key Features and Innovation:

  • Trajectory planning techniques for robots, particularly collaborative robots.
  • Integration of a path planner, trajectory generator, and trajectory controller in the robot's controller system.
  • Determination of waypoints, trajectory, and control signals for efficient robot movement.

Potential Applications:

  • Manufacturing processes
  • Warehouse automation
  • Assembly line operations

Problems Solved:

  • Efficient trajectory planning for robots

Original Abstract Submitted

Techniques are disclosed for a trajectory planning of robots, such as collaborative robots (cobots). A controller of a robot may include a path planner, a trajectory generator, and a trajectory controller. The path planner may determine a plurality of waypoints defining a path between an initial pose of the robot and a goal pose of the robot. The trajectory generator may determine a trajectory between the initial pose and the goal pose based on the waypoints and one or more trajectory criterion. The trajectory controller may generate a control signal to control the robot based on the determined trajectory.
