Local Reactive Control for Mobile Manipulators with Whole-Body Safety in Complex Environments

  • 将时域单步问题转为空间多步优化,利用运动链传播特性
  • 每段关节独立设约束,碰撞规避精度更高,任务完成率显著提升
  • 适合复杂狭小空间作业,开源代码可复现

移动机械臂在狭窄、杂乱环境中面临高维状态空间与复杂运动学的挑战。传统反应式方法虽适应动态场景,却难以高效处理全状态空间的耦合约束。本文提出一种新型局部反应控制器,将时域单步问题重构为基于空间域的多步优化问题,利用串联运动链的传播特性。该方法可定制化解耦各关节的约束条件,并通过增强拉格朗日微分动态规划(AL-DDP)高效求解。前向传播自然融入空间运动学传播,后向传播同步处理所有关节约束,显著提升约束管理能力与计算效率。特别地,采用精确几何模型提取自由区域,对每个连杆定义碰撞规避约束,大幅提高机械臂在狭窄空间中的机动性。实验表明,该方法在安全性、效率和任务完成率上均有显著提升,尤其在传统方法易失效的复杂狭小环境中表现突出。开源项目地址:https://github.com/Chunx1nZHENG/MM-with-Whole-Body-Safety-Release.git。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Mobile manipulators typically encounter significant challenges in navigating narrow, cluttered environments due to their high-dimensional state spaces and complex kinematics. While reactive methods excel in dynamic settings, they struggle to efficiently incorporate complex, coupled constraints across the entire state space. In this work, we present a novel local reactive controller that reformulates the time-domain single-step problem into a multi-step optimization problem in the spatial domain, leveraging the propagation of a serial kinematic chain. This transformation facilitates the formulation of customized, decoupled link-specific constraints, which is further solved efficiently with augmented Lagrangian differential dynamic programming (AL-DDP). Our approach naturally absorbs spatial kinematic propagation in the forward pass and processes all link-specific constraints simultaneously during the backward pass, enhancing both constraint management and computational efficiency. Notably, in this framework, we formulate collision avoidance constraints for each link using accurate geometric models with extracted free regions, and this improves the maneuverability of the mobile manipulator in narrow, cluttered spaces. Experimental results showcase significant improvements in safety, efficiency, and task completion rates. These findings underscore the robustness of the proposed method, particularly in narrow, cluttered environments where conventional approaches could falter.
