Aiming to build upon the slow convergence speed and low search efficiency of the potential function-based rapidly exploring random tree star (RRT*) algorithm (P_RRT*), this paper proposes a path planning method for manipulators with an improved P_RRT* algorithm (defined as improved P_RRT*), which is used to solve the path planning problem for manipulators in three-dimensional space. This method first adopts a random sampling method based on a potential function. Second, based on a probability value, the nearest neighbour node is selected by the nearest Euclidean distance to the random sampling point and the minimum cost function, and in the expansion of new nodes, twice expansion methods are used to accelerate the search efficiency of the algorithm. The first expansion adopts the goal-biased expansion strategy, and the second expansion adopts the strategy of random sampling in a rectangular area. Then, the parent node of the new node is reselected, and the path is rerouted to obtain a clear path from the initial point to the target point. Redundant node deletion and the maximum curvature constraint are used to remove redundant nodes and minimize the curvature on the generated path to reduce the tortuosity of the path. The Bezier curve is used to fit the processed path and obtain the trajectory planning curve for the manipulator. Finally, the improved P_RRT* algorithm is verified experimentally in Python and the Robot Operating System (ROS) and compared with other algorithms. The experimental results verify the effectiveness and superiority of the improved algorithm. |
