This paper presents a collision-free path planning approaches based on Bézier curve and A-star algorithm for robot manipulator system. The main problem of this work is to finding a feasible collision path planning from initial point to final point to transport the robot arm from the preliminary to the very last within the presence of obstacles, a sequence of joint angles alongside the path have to be determined. To solve this problem several algorithms have been presented among which it can be mention such as Bug algorithms, A-Star algorithms, potential field algorithms, Bézier curve algorithm and intelligent algorithms. In this paper obstacle avoidance algorithms were proposed Bézier and A-Star algorithms, through theoretical studies and simulations with several different cases, it's found verify the effectiveness of the methods suggested. It's founded the Bézier algorithm is smoothing accurate, and effective as compare with the A-star algorithm, but A-star is near to shortest and optimal path to free collision avoidance. The time taken and the elapsed time to traverse from its starting position and to reach the goal are recorded the tabulated results show that the elapsed time with different cases to traverse from the start location to destination using A-star Algorithm is much less as compared to the time taken by the robot using Bézier Algorithm to trace the same path. The robot used was the Lab-Volt of 5DOF Servo Robot System Model 5250 (RoboCIM5250)

Abstract A super redundant serpentine manipulator has slender structure and multiple degrees of freedom and can travel through narrow space and move in complex space. This manipulator is composed of many modules that can form different lengths of robot arms for different application sites. The increase in degrees of freedom causes the inverse kinematics of redundant manipulator to be typical and immensely increases the calculation load in the joint space. This paper presents a composite optimization method of path planning for obstacle avoidance and discrete trajectory tracking of a super redundant manipulator. In this composite optimization, path planning is established on a Bezier curve, particle swarm optimization is adopted to adjust the control points of the Bezier curve with the kinematic constraints of manipulator, and a feasible obstacle avoidance path is obtained along with a discrete trajectory tracking using a follow-the-leader strategy. The relative distance between each two discrete path points is limited to reduce the fitting error of the connecting rigid links to the smooth curve. Simulation results show that this composite optimization method can rapidly search for the appropriate trajectory to guide the manipulator in obtaining the target while achieving obstacle avoidance and meeting joint constraints. The proposed algorithm is suitable for 3D space obstacle avoidance and multitarget path tracking.

AbstractThe paper presents the method of approximating curves with a single segment of the B-Spline and Bézier curves. The method for determining a single curve segment using the optimization methods in the CATIA environment is shown. The algorithms of simulated annealing and design of experiment are used for optimization. For the same purpose, a new original procedure for determining the distance between the given curves using explicit parameters in the CATIA environment was also used. This approximation of the cyclic curves results in the curve oscillation as shown in the examples. The results show that the approximation method with Bézier curve using control points as “free” points can be applied to obtain the best results of approximation.

Abstract A super redundant serpentine manipulator has slender structure and multiple degrees of freedom. It can travel through narrow spaces and move in complex spaces. This manipulator is composed of many modules that can form different lengths of robot arms for different application sites. The increase in degrees of freedom causes the inverse kinematics of redundant manipulator to be typical and immensely increases the calculation load in the joint space. This paper presents an integrated optimization method to solve the path planning for obstacle avoidance and discrete trajectory tracking of a super redundant manipulator. In this integrated optimization, path planning is established on a Bezier curve, and particle swarm optimization is adopted to adjust the control points of the Bezier curve with the kinematic constraints of manipulator. A feasible obstacle avoidance path is obtained along with a discrete trajectory tracking by using a follow-the-leader strategy. The relative distance between each two discrete path points is limited to reduce the fitting error of the connecting rigid links to the smooth curve. Simulation results show that this integrated optimization method can rapidly search for the appropriate trajectory to guide the manipulator in obtaining the target while achieving obstacle avoidance and meeting joint constraints. The proposed algorithm is suitable for 3D space obstacle avoidance and multitarget path tracking.
