AbstractIn this article the optimal path generation of redundant robot manipulators is considered as an optimization problem, with given kinematics and subject to the robot requirements and a singularities avoidance constraint. This problem is formulated as a constrained continuous optimal control problem, which allows to consider joints and velocities constraints and/or manipulator dynamics. This approach is exemplified for a planar redundant manipulator and the resultant state constrained problem is solved by an efficient iterative numerical technique.
