本文研究非完整约束移动机器人基于推动的多物体重排规划问题。由于几何、运动学和物理约束同时存在,该问题极具挑战性。以往工作常通过假设灵巧硬件、抓取能力或稀疏工作空间来简化约束。我们的核心洞察是:将这些约束统一建模,可使受限机器人通过改造环境来应对难题。为此,提出推移可达图(Push-Traversability graph),其顶点表示机器人可推动物体的位姿,边表示最优、运动学可行且稳定的转移路径。基于此图,开发了ReloPush框架,将复杂多物体重排任务分解为一系列单物体推动任务。在1/10比例机器人赛车上,对最多包含九个物体的密集场景进行评估,结果显示,相比两个缺乏该图结构的基线方法,ReloPush在真实世界中执行更鲁棒,平均执行时间更短,物体接触丢失次数显著减少,运行时间快多个数量级。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
We focus on push-based multi-object rearrangement planning using a nonholonomically constrained mobile robot. The simultaneous geometric, kinematic, and physics constraints make this problem especially challenging. Prior work on rearrangement planning often relaxes some of these constraints by assuming dexterous hardware, prehensile manipulation, or sparsely occupied workspaces. Our key insight is that by capturing these constraints into a unified representation, we could empower a constrained robot to tackle difficult problem instances by modifying the environment in its favor. To this end, we introduce a Push-Traversability graph, whose vertices represent poses that the robot can push objects from, and edges represent optimal, kinematically feasible, and stable transitions between them. Based on this graph, we develop ReloPush, a graph-based planning framework that takes as input a complex multi-object rearrangement task and breaks it down into a sequence of single-object pushing tasks. We evaluate ReloPush across a series of challenging scenarios, involving the rearrangement of densely cluttered workspaces with up to nine objects, using a 1/10-scale robot racecar. ReloPush exhibits orders of magnitude faster runtimes and significantly more robust execution in the real world, evidenced in lower execution times and fewer losses of object contact, compared to two baselines lacking our proposed graph structure.
