Global kinodynamic motion planning for an underactuated timber crane with stochastic trajectory optimization
Efficient, collision-free motion planning is a crucial building block for autonomous timber cranes. These machines present unique challenges, such as hydraulic actuation constraints and passive joints — factors that are seldom addressed by current motion planning methods. This paper presents efficient global kinodynamic motion planning for timber cranes using the recently introduced via-point-based stochastic trajectory optimization (VP-STO) algorithm. We demonstrate the effectiveness by comparing the approach to LQR-RRT*, a sampling-based kinodynamic planner for underactuated systems, and a geometric RRT*, which solves a simplified geometric planning problem without kinodynamic constraints.
期刊介绍:
Mechatronics is the synergistic combination of precision mechanical engineering, electronic control and systems thinking in the design of products and manufacturing processes. It relates to the design of systems, devices and products aimed at achieving an optimal balance between basic mechanical structure and its overall control. The purpose of this journal is to provide rapid publication of topical papers featuring practical developments in mechatronics. It will cover a wide range of application areas including consumer product design, instrumentation, manufacturing methods, computer integration and process and device control, and will attract a readership from across the industrial and academic research spectrum. Particular importance will be attached to aspects of innovation in mechatronics design philosophy which illustrate the benefits obtainable by an a priori integration of functionality with embedded microprocessor control. A major item will be the design of machines, devices and systems possessing a degree of computer based intelligence. The journal seeks to publish research progress in this field with an emphasis on the applied rather than the theoretical. It will also serve the dual role of bringing greater recognition to this important area of engineering.
