Custom Trajectory Planning

Hi all,

I am doing a research project that involves optimizing trajectory planning for minimum energy consumption.
I am exploring different ways of implementing this optimization into simulation and would like to ask the community if implementing custom trajectory planning or optimizing trajectory planning is possible with RobotStudio SDK.

I've already considered ROS and Gazebo, but I want to explore possibilities with RobotStudio. One idea was to externally create the trajectory planning optimization (with python, for example) and import that created trajectory into RobotStudio through a set of targets or other means.

Any tips or suggestions are much appreciated! Thanks all.

  • Hello!
    Yes this is definitely possible.

    To achieve this, look into socket communication with the controller (using PC interface).

    Using socket communication, you can generate all your points in another piece of software, and send the points over the socket to your controller.
