- 联合搜索机械臂分配与冗余空间运动,统一处理任务
- 在多臂系统上实现零碰撞、轨迹跟踪的协调执行
- 适合需跨平台部署多臂策略的研究者与工程师
学习到的操作策略越来越多地为抽象‘手’预测动作,因其依赖易获取的示范数据且可在不同机器人平台间迁移而具有实用价值。然而,在多臂机器人上执行这些轨迹并不简单:需将策略输出分配给物理臂,每臂须实现符合配置空间要求的末端轨迹跟踪,同时满足运动学约束并避免碰撞。当前缺乏直接解决此问题的算法,从业者通常非正式地扩展单臂逆运动学(IK)流程,无法保证可行性或安全性。本文提出一种基于搜索的框架,理论上可完整实现策略生成的多手轨迹在物理多臂系统上的落地。基于冲突检测搜索,该方法显式搜索轨迹到臂的离散分配及冗余机械臂连续雅可比零空间,利用冗余性规避臂间碰撞的同时精确跟踪指定轨迹。这种对分配与零空间运动的一体化处理,带来一个实际高效的规划器,可安全实现多臂机器人上的协同操作策略输出。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Learned manipulation policies increasingly predict motions for abstract "hands" and are attractive in practice because they rely on easily collected demonstrations and transfer across robot platforms. Executing these trajectories on multi-arm robots, however, is not trivial. Multi-hand policy outputs must be assigned to physical arms, each arm must realize a configuration-space motion that tracks its prescribed end-effector trajectory, and all arms must respect kinematic limits and avoid collisions. In the absence of algorithms that directly address this problem, practitioners typically extend single-arm inverse-kinematics (IK) pipelines in an ad hoc way, with no guarantees of feasibility or safety. In this work, we close this execution gap with a search-based framework that is theoretically complete for grounding policy-generated multi-hand trajectories onto physical multi-arm systems. Building on Conflict-Based Search, our method explicitly searches over both the discrete assignment of trajectories to arms and the continuous Jacobian null spaces of redundant manipulators, using redundancy to avoid inter-arm collisions while tracking the prescribed motions. This unified treatment of assignment and null-space motion yields a practically efficient planner that safely realizes coordinated manipulation-policy outputs on multi-arm robots.
