PATH/TRAJECTORY COMPUTATION OF ROBOTIC MANIPULATORS AND MOBILE ROBOTS
​
Successfully implemented RRT and PRM methods for a point robot using A* algorithm on MATLAB.
Successfully implemented PRM-based motion planning method for a planer manipulator using dijkstra algorithm.
Compared both the methods based on their properties.
DESIGNED CONTROLLERS FOR TWO-LINK ROBOT MANIPULATOR
Derived dynamic equations of motion for the robot manipulator using Euler-Lagrange equations.
Designed feedback-linearization and passivity based controllers to regulate the manipulator to desired configuration under control constraints using MATLAB/Simulink.
Compared the performance of the controllers under nominal and perturbed parameters.

ROBOTIC ARM OPTIMIZATION PROBLEM
Time taken to reorient the arm from an initial orientation to a given orientation was minimized under given dynamic and control inequality constraints and boundary conditions using direct collocation.
