Abstract
Inverse kinematics is one of the core calculations in robotic applications and has strong performance requirements. Previous hardware acceleration work paid little attention to joint constraints, which can lead to computational failures. We propose a new inverse kinematics algorithm JANM-IK. It uses a hardware-friendly design, optimizes the Jacobian-based method and Nelder-Mead method, realizes the processing of joint constraints, and has a high convergence speed. We further designed its acceleration architecture to achieve high-performance computing through sufficient parallelism and hardware optimization. Finally, after experimental verification, JANM-IK can achieve a very high success rate and obtain certain performance improvements.
期刊介绍:
IEEE Computer Architecture Letters is a rigorously peer-reviewed forum for publishing early, high-impact results in the areas of uni- and multiprocessor computer systems, computer architecture, microarchitecture, workload characterization, performance evaluation and simulation techniques, and power-aware computing. Submissions are welcomed on any topic in computer architecture, especially but not limited to: microprocessor and multiprocessor systems, microarchitecture and ILP processors, workload characterization, performance evaluation and simulation techniques, compiler-hardware and operating system-hardware interactions, interconnect architectures, memory and cache systems, power and thermal issues at the architecture level, I/O architectures and techniques, independent validation of previously published results, analysis of unsuccessful techniques, domain-specific processor architectures (e.g., embedded, graphics, network, etc.), real-time and high-availability architectures, reconfigurable systems.
