  1. Piyush Kumar (Lecture 10: Robot Motion Planning) Computational Geometry Welcome to CIS5930

  3. Robots Fiction Real World

  4. Robot Motion Planning Obstacles Free space

  5. Robot Motion Planning Work Space : Environment in which robot operates Obstacles : Already occupied spaces of the world. Free Space : Unoccupied space of the world.

  6. Configuration Space OR C-space Helps in determining where a robot can go. Modelling a robot Configuration: Values which specify the position of a robot Geometric shape description

  7. Motion Planning start goal obstacles Given a robot, find a sequence of valid configurations that moves the robot from the source to destination.

  8. Configuration Space Configuration: Specification of the robot position relative to a fixed coordinate system. Usually a set of values expressed as a vector of positions/orientations. Configuration Space: is the space of all possible robot configurations.

  9. Configuration Space Example workspace robot reference direction  y reference point x • 3-parameter representation: q = (x,y,) • In 3D? 6-parameters - (x,y,z,)

  10. Configuration Space Y A robot which can translate in the plane C-space: 2-D (x, y) X Euclidean space: Y A robot which can translate and rotate in the plane C-space: 3-D (x, y, ) Y X x Courtesy J.Xiao

  11. q2 q1 C-Space q = (q1,q2,…,q10)

  12. Configuration Space /Obstacles Circular Robot

  13. C-Obstacles • Convex polygonal robot

  14. Minkowski Sum A B = { a+b | a  A, b  B }  

  15. Minkowski Sums • 3D Minkowski sum difficult to compute • Many Applications • Configuration Space Computation • Offset • Morphing • Packing and Layout • Friction model

  16. Configuration Obstacle • Only for robots in 2d that can translate. • CP = { p | R(p) ∩ P ≠ Null }

  17. C-Obstacles • Lemma : CP = P  (-R) • Proof: Show that R(q) intersects P iff q є P  (-R). • q є P  (-R) iff there exists p є P and (-r) є (-R) such that q = p – r • R(q) intersects P iff there exists r є R and p є P such that r+q = p. Equivalent

  18. An illustration

  19. Computing Minkowski sum • For a given convex polygonal obstacle (with n vertices) and a convex footprint robot (with m vertices), how fast can we compute the CP? O(m + n) Idea: Walk.

  20. Complexity of Minkowski Sums? • Can we bound the complexity of the minkowski sum of disjoint convex obstacles with n vertices in the plane? • Naïve bound? • Triangulate the obstacles : O(n) edges. • Minkowski sum of R with triangles = O(nm) • Complexity of the union? O((nm)2)?

  21. Pseudodisks: Defn. • A set of convex objects {o1,o2,…,on} is called a collection of pseudodisks if for any two distinct objects oi and oj both of the set theoretic differences oi\oj and oj\oi are connected.

  22. Lemma 1 • Given a set of convex objects {T1, T2,…, Tn,} with disjoint interiors and convex R, the set {Ti  R | i = 1..n } is a collection of psedodisks. Proof: On the chalkboard 

  23. Lemma 2 • Given a collection of pseudodisks with n vertices, the complexity of their union is O(n). • Why?

  24. Planning approaches in C-space • Roadmap Approach: • Visibility Graph Methods • Cell Decomposition Approach • Potential Fields • Many other Algorithms…

  25. goal start Visibility Graph in C-space Each path in c-space from s to t represents a viable move from s to t of the Robot in the original space.

  26. goal start Visibility Graph in C-space Computation time? Each path in c-space from s to t represents a viable move from s to t of the Robot in the original space.

  27. Vis Graph in higher dimensions? Will it work?
