Abstract

This paper proposes the Elastic force application on the obstacle avoidance of Silvermate robots. The method deals with the problem associated with a Silvermate robot driving to a goal configuration as avoiding obstacles. The initial trajectory of a robot is determined by a motion planner, and the trajectory modification is accomplished by adjusting the control points. The control points are obtained based on the elastic force approach. Consequently the trajectory of a robot is incrementally modified to maintain a smooth and adaptive trajectory in an environment with obstacles. The suggested algorithm drives the robot to avoid obstacle in real-time. Finally, The simulation studies are carried out to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
