Baxter Robot Motion Planning Implementation
This implementation was tested on a Baxter Research Robot from Rethink Robotics. The algorithm was able to find a path to any desired position, avoiding obstacles of different complexity. We implemented two different path finding algorithms: RRT (Rapidly exploring random tree) and PRM (Probabilistic Road Map). When using PRM, the shortest path from start to goal was found using Dijkstra’s algorithm. In both cases, after the path was found, we had to shortcut it if possible, and then resample…
This implementation was tested on a Baxter Research Robot from Rethink Robotics. The algorithm was able to find a path to any desired position, avoiding obstacles of different complexity. We implemented two different path finding algorithms: RRT (Rapidly exploring random tree) and PRM (Probabilistic Road Map). When using PRM, the shortest path from start to goal was found using Dijkstra’s algorithm. In both cases, after the path was found, we had to shortcut it if possible, and then resample that path. The resampled path was the input to a trajectory execution function that computed joint velocities and accelerations using spline interpolation. Results were validated via simulation on the ROS RViz visualizer and then tested on the actual Baxter Robot. The whole algorithm was part of a bigger ROS framework provided by our professor.
