Abstract
The off-line global trajectory planning for kinematically redundant ma nipulators is formulated as an optimization problem whose solution is obtained by applying the Pontryagin's Maximum Principle. The state spa ce augmentation method is developed to obtain a set of optimal joint t rajectories corresponding to a singularity-free Cartesian path which a voids joint limits and conserves joint configuration in cyclic motion. Results of computer simulation conducted on a three-degree-of-freedom planar manipulator are presented and discussed.
