让机器人在硬约束下实时规划，轨迹更准更稳。

Sampling-based model predictive control methods, such as Model Predictive Path Integral (MPPI), offer derivative-free optimization and robustness in complex robotic systems. However, standard MPPI relies on cost-based soft penalties that cannot guarantee hard-constraint satisfaction, severely limiting its applicability to highly constrained tasks such as closed-chain manipulation. To address this, we propose Manifold-Constrained MPPI (MC-MPPI), a real-time sampling-based control framework that enforces manifold-based equality constraints while preserving the computational advantages of MPPI. The key idea is to decouple the constrained optimal control problem into latent-space planning and execution-level correction. At the planning stage, a Variational Autoencoder (VAE) learns a low-dimensional latent representation of the constraint manifold, enabling MPPI to efficiently generate near-feasible candidate trajectories without per-sample modification. Since this reference enables accurate linearization of the equality constraints, an execution-level Quadratic Programming (QP) controller resolves the residual manifold mismatch in a single solve rather than through iterative projection. Experiments on a 14-DoF closed-chain dual-arm system in both simulation and real-world settings demonstrate that MC-MPPI operates stably at 100 Hz, reliably navigates dynamic environments while effectively maintaining hard equality constraints, and significantly outperforms baseline methods in tracking accuracy.
