Abstract
Incorporating human natural features into the algorithmic functions of robots can enhance performance efficiency. One of the most popular features of human movements is the power law that defines the connection between movement speed and path curvature. To contribute to this area, by discussing how the power law can provide a reasonable balance between velocity and efficiency, we propose a novel method to design motion profiles based on the power law. The novelty of this solution lies in the adjustment approach for the power law. In this work, inspired by features of human hand movements, the overall curvature of non-circular shapes is considered as the shape-dependent criterion for motion planning. Also, a framework to apply the proposed approach to any open non-circular curvy contours is presented. To investigate the efficiency of the approach, we considered a simple drawing robot. The simulation and experimental results verify the efficacy of the proposed motion planning method.
