Path Planning for 2-DOF Manipulator Based on Bezier Curve and A* algorithm

摘要

Robotic manipulator path planning is one of the research focus which has very important sense. As a heuristic A* algorithm, there are often problems which have large rotation angles and multiple broken lines. To solve these problems, a grid method combining Bezier curve and A* algorithm are proposed to realize path planning. Finally, Visual Basic simulation tool is used to verify that the grid method combined with Bezier curve and A* algorithm are compared with the common A* algorithm, so that the efficiency and rotation angle of path planning for 2-DOF manipulator are greatly improved.
