New paradigms in industrial robotics no longer require physical separation between robotic manipulators and humans. Moreover, in order to optimize production, humans and robots are expected to collaborate to some extent. In this scenario, involving a shared environment between humans and robots, common motion generation algorithms might turn out to be inadequate for this purpose.
A new Robotic Assembly Skill (RAS) modeling framework is proposed. An assembly skill is a primitive that encapsulates the capabilities to coordinate, control and supervise an elementary robot task. To gain reusability of a primitive in alike robot tasks, the primitives are represented as generic templates that are parametrized for each situation with data from an assembly specification. A skill is...
Modeling and predicting human behavior is indispensable when industrial robots interacting with human operators are to be manipulated safely and efficiently. One challenge is that human operators tend to follow different motion patterns, depending on their intention and the structure of the environment. This precludes the use of classical estimation techniques based on kinematic or dynamic models,...
A control scheme for efficient and safe path and motion planning of industrial robots is proposed. For motion planning of robotic manipulators, an offline method is developed which generates feasible trajectories of the joints such that a given performance criterion is maximized. The planning problem considering obstacle avoidance is converted to an optimization problem with interior points for the...
