Abstract

This paper describes the initial development of a real-time trajectory planner for a robotic manipulator arm. The planner is enhanced with the ability for the end-effector to avoid unknown obstacles in the workspace based on on-line proximity sensor data. The arm trajectory is planned in the cartesian workspace in order to allow the incorporation of the interpreted proximity sensor data. The trajectory is then converted into joint coordinates to command the servo-control loops.
