Patent ID: 10350756

Abstract:
Method of automatically avoiding an obstacle for a robot including a geometric model expression step, an area setting step, a final posture deciding step, an initial route deciding step, a virtual posture calculation step, an interference determining step, a way-point posture deciding step that decides the virtual posture as a way-point posture; and when the geometric model is determined to interfere with the no-entry area, virtually generates a repulsive force for relatively repelling an interfering portion of the geometric model from an interfering portion of the no-entry area, calculates a posture in a state where the interfering portion of the model is pushed from the no-entry area into the operating area by the repulsive force, and decides the calculated posture as a way-point posture; an updated route deciding step, and a step repeatedly performing the steps from the initial route deciding step to the updated route deciding step.
