用几何体精准建模障碍物,让机器人避障更智能高效

GeoPF: Infusing Geometry into Potential Fields for Reactive Planning in Non-trivial Environments

  • 引入点线面体等几何体替代传统点状障碍物模型
  • 成功率更高,计算成本降低近百倍,仅需单一参数配置
  • 适合需要实时避障的机器人系统,尤其人机共存场景

反应式智能是复杂、动态、以人为中心环境中机器人操作的核心。尽管潜在场(PF)因其简洁性和实时性被广泛采用,但现有方法通常依赖各向同性的点或球形障碍物近似,导致在人机交互场景中路径过于保守、调参繁琐且计算开销大,甚至无法满足实时需求。为此,我们提出几何潜在场(GeoPF),一种显式融合几何基元(点、线、面、立方体、圆柱体)及其空间关系以调节实时排斥响应的反应式运动规划框架。大量定量分析显示,与传统方法相比,GeoPF具有更高的成功率、显著降低的调参复杂度(单参数集跨实验适用)以及更低的计算成本(最高达两个数量级)。真实世界实验进一步验证了其可靠性、鲁棒性及部署便捷性,并展示其可扩展至全身避障。GeoPF为反应式规划提供了几何感知的新视角,推动了面向时间的灵活低延迟运动生成,适用于现代机器人应用。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Reactive intelligence remains one of the cornerstones of versatile robotics operating in cluttered, dynamic, and human-centred environments. Among reactive approaches, potential fields (PF) continue to be widely adopted due to their simplicity and real-time applicability. However, existing PF methods typically oversimplify environmental representations by relying on isotropic, point- or sphere-based obstacle approximations. In human-centred settings, this simplification results in overly conservative paths, cumbersome tuning, and computational overhead -- even breaking real-time requirements. In response, we propose the Geometric Potential Field (GeoPF), a reactive motion-planning framework that explicitly infuses geometric primitives -- points, lines, planes, cubes, and cylinders -- their structure and spatial relationship in modulating the real-time repulsive response. Extensive quantitative analyses consistently show GeoPF's higher success rates, reduced tuning complexity (a single parameter set across experiments), and substantially lower computational costs (up to 2 orders of magnitude) compared to traditional PF methods. Real-world experiments further validate GeoPF reliability, robustness, and practical ease of deployment, as well as its scalability to whole-body avoidance. GeoPF provides a fresh perspective on reactive planning problems driving geometric-aware temporal motion generation, enabling flexible and low-latency motion planning suitable for modern robotic applications.
