International audienceIn the context of human-robot manipulation interaction for service or industrial robotics, the robot controller must be able to quickly react to unpredictable events in dynamic environments. In this paper, a FIR filter-based trajectory generation methodology is presented, combining the simplicity of the analytic second-order trajectory generation, i.e. acceleration-limited trajectory, with the flexibility and computational efficiency of FIR filtering, to generate on the fly smooth jerk-constrained trajectories. The proposed methodology can generate synchronized (fixed-time) and time-optimal jerk-limited trajectories from arbitrary initial velocity and acceleration conditions within 20 microsecond. Other jerk-constrained trajectories such as jerk-time fixed trajectories, which are particularly suitable for vibration reduction, can be easily generated. Experimental validations carried out on a seven axis Kuka LBR iiwa are presented
This paper presents a novel approach to generate online jerk-limited trajectories for multi-DOF robotic systems. Finite Impulse Response filters are used to efficiently turn low computational cost acceleration-limited profiles into jerk-limited profiles. Starting from a new setpoint, e.g. an event given by external sensors, and an arbitrary state of motion, i.e. with nonzero initial velocity and acceleration values, the proposed method can generate different shapes of jerk profile, including timeoptimal and fixed-time jerk-limited trajectories. A new definition of the velocity, acceleration and jerk kinematic limits can be instantaneously taken into account during the motion. Moreover, the very low calculation time (less than 1 microsecond) makes it possible to easily control a multi-DOF system during one control cycle (classically about 1 millisecond), while preserving time for other computer processing. The algorithm is experimentally tested on the new 7-DOF industrial robot KUKA LWR iiwa.
