Abstract

This paper describes the use of the probabilistic motion planning technique SBL “Single-Query Bidirectional Probabilistic Algorithm with Lazy Collision Checking” or in motion planning for robot manipulators. We present a novel strategy to remedy the PRM “Probabilistic Roadmap” paths which are both excessively long and velocity discontinuous. The optimization of the path will be done first through Coarse optimal lazy A* optimization and then through a Fine cutting-triangles-edge one, the edges discontinuities are smoothed with cubic polynomials taking the robot’s specific Dynamic and Cinematic constraints. The whole strategy is applied to the 6 axes robot Manipulator MOTOMAN SV3X.
