Path planning of wheel loader type robot for scooping and loading operation by genetic algorithm

摘要

There is a demand of mining automation by heavy equipment in an open mine. Authors aim to automization of motion for wheel loader in scooping and loading operation. In this paper, we applied the optimization method by Genetic Algorithm to the path planning for the wheel loader on scooping and loading operation. We showed the quasi-optimized path and demonstrated by the miniature wheel loader robot.
