Journal ArticleDOI
Path planning for planar articulated robots using configuration spaces and compliant motion
TL;DR: This paper presents a path-planning algorithm for an articulated planar robot with a static obstacle that solves every problem in seconds, whereas randomized algorithms appear to fail on all of them.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
RRT path planner with 3DOF local planner
Jade Yang,E. Sacks +1 more
TL;DR: A path planning algorithm for a polyhedral robot with six degrees of freedom (6DOF) and a static obstacle that uses a novel local planner that outperforms prior planners on problems with narrow channels and performs comparably on other problems.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Computer-aided synthesis of higher pairs via configuration space manipulation
M.-H. Kyung,E. Sacks +1 more
TL;DR: A parametric synthesis algorithm for planar mechanical systems comprised of higher kinematic pairs in which each part translates along a fixed axis or rotates around a fixed point.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Dynamical simulation of assemblies of planar, 1 DOF parts with changing contacts using configuration spaces
E. Sacks,L. Joskowicz +1 more
TL;DR: An algorithm for dynamical simulation of rigid-body mechanical systems with changing contact topologies based on configuration spaces is presented, which overcomes the limitations of mechanical systems simulators and of general-body simulators.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Deterministic path planning for planar assemblies
TL;DR: This work presents a deterministic path planning algorithm for an assembly of rigid planar parts connected by joints, which is the first complete algorithm that is practical for real-world applications.
