Max orientation coverage: efficient path planning to avoid collisions in the CNC milling of 3D objects

IROS 2020poster

Most path planning algorithms for covering a complex 3D object ignore physical limitations or constraints on a robot's motion. Adhering to such constraints for a given path can slow down the time to cover the path because the motion may need to be adjusted. This work considers a scenario in computer…

Adaptive Deep Path: Efficient Coverage of a Known Environment under Various Configurations

IROS 2019poster

Coverage path planning of a known environment sees a variety of applications, including cleaning, surveillance, agriculture and 3D printing. Most approaches employ hard-coded heuristics or other application-specific requirements, making them hard to extend to other problem scenarios or “configuratio…
