Abstract

A novel simple approach is presented to provide online collision avoidance (CA) function to the telerobot controller by adding a collision detection module and a joint velocity adjustment module to the commonly used resolved motion rate control control scheme. When the robot arm encounters obstacles while tracking the commanded motion, a virtual repulsive force is generated based on the nearest distance and the relative approaching velocities between the robot arm and obstacles. This Cartesian space virtual force then is used to repel the robot arm away from obstacles by adjusting the joint velocities. The relation between the joint velocity adjustment and the Cartesian space collision is studied. As a joint velocity based CA strategy, the approach can be implemented easily based on any motion controller with a joint velocity servo loop. The algorithm is also computationally efficient to be adopted in real time. Simulation studies show that the approach can produce smooth and stable CA actions while tracking the predefined trajectory.
