Path Modifying Control System Managing Robot Singularities
WARF: P190303US02
Inventors: Paul Milenkovic
The Invention
A controller for robot arms and the like having mechanical singularities identifies paths near the singularities and modifies those paths to avoid excessive joint movement according to a minimization of tool orientation deviation to produce alternative paths that minimize changes in the tool orientation such as can affect application such as welding, sealant application, coating and the like.
