Problem Formultion n Overview of Solution A brief ecription of the colliion voince problem we im to olve i follow: Given trt confiurtion n ol confiurtion for the en-effector of robot rm, compute trjectory for the commne vlue of the robot joint, uch tht the ol i reche without the robot colliin with ynmic humn obtcle preent in it workpce. The joint vlue t ech time-tep houl be compute ft enouh to llow for rel-time implementtion of the metho. In the bence of the humn, the robot houl move in triht line from it current loction towr the ol. Fi. Geometric moel of workcell continin Pum-762 robot rm n humn. Our colliion voince pproch i heuritic; we im for efficiency rther thn optimlity of the olution (i.e. it trie to obtin oo olution quickly). It require eometric moel of the robot n humn. We ume tht enor meurement of the poition n orienttion of the humn he, toro n limb re vilble t ech time-tep. Recent vnce in humn trckin metho for cluttere environment (ee [0-3]) uet tht thi umption will be relity in the ner future. Our olution inclue relitic moel of the ynmic repone of the robot. Preiction of the robot n humn motion re utilize to mitite the etrimentl effect of nonintntneou robot opertin in ynmic environment. B. Geometric Moelin The eometric moel of the robot n the humn re necery for trnltin phyicl pce into the virtul worl of the computer. The eciion of wht type of eometric moel to ue i relte to the type of the colliion etection query we nee to olve. We re minly interete in the iml itnce between the two object involve: the robot n the humn. Althouh mny of the vilble colliion etection pcke mke ue of polyher, we electe phere-be moel for our pproch becue of it implicity n efficiency. To compute the iml itnce between two phere only require few bic computtionl opertion, where for polyherl moel the computtion i fr more complicte, i.e. cloet itnce coul be vertex-vertex, vertex-ee, ee-ee, vertex-urfce, etc. With our moel, ech robot link, n ech obtcle (the humn in thi pper), i pproximte by union of phere. Whenever the robot link or the humn move, the center of the phere re upte with new vlue. An exmple of phere-be moel for robotic workcell compoe of Pum 762 robot rm (with 6 eree-of-freeom (DOF)), n erch 3 erch 4 erch 2 preicte robot eneffector poition t timetep (t+), (t+2),(t+3),etc. when movin lon the firt erch ( ) R(t+) u 2 u u 3 R t u u n 4 u... u5 Robot en-effector poition t the moment of nlyi, time-tep (t) erch 5 R(t+2) R(t+3) R(t+ n p ) O(t+) O(t) O(t+3) O(t+2) O(t+n p ) erch erch 6 preicte obtcle (humn) poition t future time-tep (t+), (t+2), (t+3),etc. Finl ol for robot en-effector erch 0 erch n Obtcle poition t the moment of nlyi, time-tep (t) Fi. 2 Illutrtion of the colliion voince metho for the ce of implifie plnr robot n obtcle.

Colliion Avoince Alorithm The colliion voince lorithm erche for colliionfree pth by movin the en-effector lon et of preefine erch. Humn-robot colliion check re compute for number of time-tep he be on the preicte motion of the robot n humn. An optimiztion metho employin penlty fctor i ue to elect the erch tht blnce between motion towr the ol n mximizin the itnce between the phere of the humn n the robot. The bet i then ue to compute the commne en-effector poition n orienttion for the next time-tep, n the lorithm i repete. A implifie plnr ce, with the robot n the humn ech moele by inle phere, will be ue to explin the lorithm. In thi exmple, we ume the robot phere i locte t the en-effector, but thi i not requirement of the lorithm. The ynmic repone of the robot i moele intntneou. Fi. 2 illutrte wht the colliion voince lorithm oe t time-tep of the imultion when humn obtcle obtruct the robot motion towr the ol. Both robot n obtcle phere re epicte t the moment when the nlyi i performe, time-tep number t (lbele R(t) n O(t) in the fiure). The erch- re,... 0, 2, with their unit vector u, u, u2,, un, repectively. The number of erch- in the et i n + becue triht line motion towr the ol i lwy e to the fixe et of. For ech erch, i, the eneffector i commne to move incrementlly lon u i up to n time-tep he. The humn moel phere poition re p lo preicte over thee future time-tep (ee ection E for more etil). A cot function incorportin cumultive penlty fctor i ine to ech erch for ll humn-robot preicte loction (i.e. R(t) v. O(t), R(t+) v. O(t+),, R(t+n p ) v.

The cot function for ech erch i compute by: np nr nh Ψ ( t) = + p ( t + k) for =0,,, n () where: u u + k = i= j= ij u i unit vector towr the ol, vector for the erch, n u i the unit n p i the number of time-tep to erch he, n + i the number of erch, n R the number of robot moel phere, n i the number of nh humn moel phere. The term p ( t + k) einte the penlty fctor ine to the pir of phere ( i th from robot moel n th k th j from humn moel) when they re t the time-tep in the preiction erch. It i compute uin: ij MAXF ij L b pij ( t + k) = L < ij < Lmx (2) ( ij ) b ij L mx ( Lmx ) where: ij i the itnce between the urfce of the two phere (i th n j th ), L i the imum cceptble itnce between the two phere before the pir i coniere to be in virtul colliion tte, Lmx i itnce limit beyon which the me penlty fctor i pplie to ll pir of phere (rerle of their itnce), MAXF i the lret flotin point number poible in the computer (ue to efine + which i ine when virtul colliion i foun), b n re the prmeter of ecrein polynomil function which correlte the penlty function with the phere-pir itnce. Note tht true colliion only occur when ij 0. A rphicl repreenttion of the penlty function ecribe by (2) i iven in Fi. 3. A ecrein polynomil function (i.e. of eree < ) w choen to enure the penlty fctor incree t fter rte thn the itnce ecree.

The firt term in () i meure of how much the eneffector trjectory i preicte to evite from the triht line to the ol when the robot follow the erch. It i imize when the robot move towr the ol. The econ term in () i meure of how cloe the humn-robot phere re one from nother. The cloer the pir of phere, the lrer the penlty fctor ine to tht erch.

If ll the erch re preicte to prouce colliion t ome point lon the n p time-tep winow, the robot i commne to top for the next time-tep, until the humn move wy. The erch lorithm i repete t every time-tep. Note tht the invere Jcobin mtrix of the robot i ue to convert ech incrementl Crtein pce motion commn to joint pce. The proceure for the 3D itution i imilr, the min ifference bein tht the et of erch i evenly ptilly itribute in 3D pce. The unit vector u, u, u..., u cn be eily erive from the vertice of n 2, n Archimeen oli (e.. icoheron) encloe in phere with riu of one. An exmple of et of 5 erch (4 fixe n one pointin towr the ol) i hown in Fiure 4. D. Robot Motion Preiction Computin the ij vlue over the erch winow require preiction of the phere poition. To properly preict the poition of the phere for the robot eometric moel ynmic moel of the robot time repone mut be ue. The ynmic repone of ech of the joint poition controller for typicl robot cn be reonbly pproximte by the followin icrete-time firt orer plu etime trnfer function moel: τ θ ( z ) z G( z) = = (3) θ ( z) z c where θ c i the commne joint vrible, θ i the ctul joint vrible, τ i the number of time-tep of etime, i moel prmeter n z i the bckwr hift opertor. The etime cn inclue computtionl ely n communiction ely. Applyin the invere Z trnform to (3) yiel the ifference eqution: θ ( t) = θ ( t τ ) + θ ( t ) (4) c The preiction re prouce by recurively uin (4) follow: ɶ θ ( t + ) = θ ( t τ + ) + θ ( t) (5) c ɶ θ ( t + k) = θ ( t τ + k) + ɶ θ ( t + k) for k = 2,, τ (6) c ɶ θ ( t + k) = ɶ θ ( t τ + k) + ɶ θ ( t + k) for k = τ,, n (7) c p where ɶ θ i the preiction of the ctul joint vrible n ɶ θc i the preiction of the commne joint vrible compute from the incrementl erch. The preiction eqution re pplie eprtely to ech joint to obtin the complete et of joint vrible. Finlly, uin thee joint vrible the forwr kinemtic eqution for ech phere re ue to compute their preicte poition. E. Humn Motion Preiction For relible colliion voince preictin the humn motion i require. Our preiction metho i be on weihte vere velocitie pplie t the phere level of the humn eometric moel. Pt phere poition t i tore in buffer n bckwr ifferencin i ue to etimte the intntneou velocity of the phere t ech time-tep. Averin i ue to reuce the effect of rnom velocity vrition. For ech phere of humn moel the men intntneou liner velocity vector v i compute with: n h w( t i) v( t) = v ( t i) (8) i= 0 W where: nh i the ize of the hitory buffer, v ( t i) i the intntneou liner velocity vector of the phere for the i th previou time-tep, w( t i) i weihtin fctor, n W i the um of ll weihtin fctor.

The preicte poition of ech phere i then obtine by um it current ctul poition n the numericl intertion of v over the erch winow. By chooin to pply the preiction metho t the phere level, ech phere poition will be preicte inepenently, o there i no ifficulty prouce by the limb movin in ifferent.
