  4. Approach • The robot is redundant in the fact that there are 14 joints (revolute and prismatic) and the end effectors require 12 variables. • Each end effector is calculated separately for simplicity of the kinematics. • Collision detection is calculated as to keep the manipulators from hitting themselves or an outside object.

  5. Approach • Kinematics Calculations • Jacobian Matrix • Obstacle Avoidance • Self-Collision Avoidance

  6. Kinematics Calculations • The kinematics of the robot is calculated by using Denavit-Hartenberg* • The axises of the various revolute and prismatic joints in a • Top view • Side view • Front view. * J. Denavit and R.S. Hartenberg. A kinematic notation for lower-pair mechanisms based on matrices. Trans ASME J. Appl. Mech, 23:215- 221, 1955.

  7. Kinematics Calculations • The axises of the robot are used to calculate the kinematics of the: • Torso - The value of represents 90 for the left arm and -90 for the right arm • Each arm

  8. Kinematics Calculations • The resulting D-H matrix for the: • Torso for the Left arm • Torso for the Right arm • Each Arm

  9. Jacobian Matrix • The Jacobian matrix for each arm was calculated separately. • The relationship between each set of variables results in the Jacobian.

  10. Jacobian Matrix • The Jacobian is found by using the D-H matrices • The following matrices are used to calculate the Jacobian represent the values of from the previous iteration.

  11. Obstacle Avoidance • When the manipulators or torso collides with another object, another Jacobian will need to be computed to determine the final velocity of the manipulator. • This new Jacobian is referred to as the collision Jacobian.* * H. Kaneko, T. Arai, K. Inoue and Y. Mae. Real-time Obstacle Avoidance for Robot Arm Using Collision Jacobian. Proc. IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS), pp. 617-622, 1999.

  12. Obstacle Avoidance • Calculate the collision Jacobian using: and • are two points, one on the robot and one on the object, that are the closest in length to each other

  13. Obstacle Avoidance • First, calculate the distance value: • Next, differentiate across all joint values inverse Jacobian

  14. Obstacle Avoidance • Then, stack all values for each collision • Finally, multiply collision Jacobian to end effector velocity to compute new velocity for each collision

  15. Self-Collision Avoidance • The algorithm of the collision Jacobian can be used for self-collision or develop a trimmed down method. • The goal of this method is to focus on the elbow joint to the end effector of each arm, since they are the only movable items that will collide with any other part of the robot.

  16. Self-Collision Avoidance • A set of four rules can be used to avoid self collision. • The elbow joint position must be units above the height of the mobile base.

  17. Self-Collision Avoidance • The end effector position must be units away from the torso • A set of four rules can be used to avoid self collision.

  18. Self-Collision Avoidance • The end effector position must be units away from the mobile base • A set of four rules can be used to avoid self collision.

  19. Self-Collision Avoidance • The area around the elbow, forearm, wrist, and end effector for each arm must be units away from everything else. • A set of four rules can be used to avoid self collision.

  20. Results • The focus of this experiment is to implement the proposed kinematics and Jacobian within a 3D environment. • Matlab was used to create a 3D graphical interface of this approach.

  21. Results • Nine iterations of the experiment that moves both end effectors to pre-specified locations:

  22. Conclusion • Various sensors (e.g. cameras, sonars, etc) will be needed to calculate locations of and distances from the nearest obstacles. • The mobile base of this robot allows for reduced singularity in several cases. • The singularities that are common with standard manipulators involve end effector locations being out of reach in the horizontal plane and locations that parts of the robot system currently occupy. • The design of a dual arm mobile robot reduces singularities and increases complexity because of the redundancy of two arms and a movable base.

  23. Future Work • Implement proposed approach • Laundry Robot Video
