Abstract: Path planning with obstacle avoidance has been a major challenge in robotic manipulators which are composed of multiple links especially in the case of complex-shaped obstacles. This paper proposes an improved collision-free path planning algorithm based on the Artificial Potential Field (APF) method to obtain a collision-free path from initial to a desired position and orientation. Firstly, the robot is modelled by the Denavit-Hartenberg DH parameter method. Secondly, the artificial attractive and repulsive force field equations are derived in the case of both spherical and hollow cylindrical obstacles. Then, a poly-articulated cylindrical model for the robot is used for collision detection between all its links and the obstacle. Finally, a virtual torque is generated based on the forces affecting the robot links to produce a suitable motion to approach the final target without collision with the obstacle. The algorithm is evaluated by building a simulation platform using MATLAB R20 20b and Robotic Toolbox. Various simulations on the UR5 robot show that the proposed algorithm can plan a free-collision path in the 6D operational space. The simulations also show that the algorithm has a low computational cost, so it can be used for real-time applications. (More)
