}One important issue in the motion planning and control of kinematically redundant manipulators is the obstacle avoidance. In this paper, a recurrent neural network is developed and applied for kinematic control of redundant manipulators with obstacle avoidance capability. An improved problem formulation is proposed in the sense that the collision-avoidance requirement is represented by dynamically-updated inequality constraints. In addition, physical constraints such as joint physical limits…
