Abstract :
In this article a simple and fast procedure for (on-line) synchronous motion planning of multi-manipulatory systems is presented. The method is based on solving for each manipulator a linear system of equations taking into account a simple null space vector for motion planning, and a novel scheme for the appropriate robustness of the pseudoinverse matrix. This method pursues simultaneously both motion: collision-free, coordination and singularities prevention in real time in a sensor based environment
