Abstract:In this paper, path planning for cylindrical manipulator of 4-DOF is studied. Another view point is presented for using so called 'artificial potential fields' which is used as the base of searching for new and safe points in the manipulator's workspace among static obstacles. Three vectors are used for safe manipulator navigation. The first vector is determined between the end-effector and the goal points and it is used to attract the end-effector to the goal point. While the second and third vectors are comp… Show more
