      Parallel robots exhibit the so-called forward singularities, which complicate substantially the planning and control of their motions. Often, such complications are circumvented by restricting the motions to singularity-free ...
    • Direct collocation methods for trajectory optimization in constrained robotic systems

      Article
      Accés obert
      Direct collocation methods are powerful tools to solve trajectory optimization problems in robotics. While their resulting trajectories tend to be dynamically accurate, they may also present large kinematic errors in the ...

      This work proposes a methodology for kinodynamic planning and trajectory control in robots with closed kinematic chains. The ability to plan trajectories is key in a robotic system, as it provides a means to convert ...
    • Kinodynamic planning on constraint manifolds 

      Bordalba Llaberia, Ricard; Porta Pleite, Josep Maria; Ros Giralt, Lluís (2017)
      Report de recerca
      Accés obert
      This report presents a motion planner for systems subject to kinematic and dynamic constraints. The former appear when kinematic loops are present in the system, such as in parallel manipulators, in robots that cooperate ...
    • Randomized kinodynamic planning for cable-suspended parallel robots 

      Bordalba Llaberia, Ricard; Porta Pleite, Josep Maria; Ros Giralt, Lluís (Springer, 2017)
      Text en actes de congrés
      Accés obert
      This paper proposes the use of a randomized kinodynamic planning technique to synthesize dynamic motions for cable-suspended parallel robots. Given two mechanical states of the robot, both with a prescribed position and ...

      Text en actes de congrés
      Accés obert
      Kinodynamic RRT planners are considered to be general tools for effectively finding feasible trajectories for high-dimensional dynamical systems. However, they struggle when holonomic constraints are present in the system, ...
    • Randomized planning of dynamic motions avoiding forward singularities 

      Bordalba Llaberia, Ricard; Ros Giralt, Lluís; Porta Pleite, Josep Maria (Springer International Publishing, 2018)
      Text en actes de congrés
      Accés obert
      Forward singularities, also known as direct, or actuator singularities, cause many problems to the planning and control of robot motions. They yield position errors and rigidity losses of the robot, and generate unbounded ...
