Via‐Points Task Execution Based on Enhanced Dynamic Movement Primitives and Steering Force Fields

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Enhanced dynamic movement primitives with steering force fields enable robotic arms to flexibly traverse static and dynamic via‐points while preserving demonstrated trajectory shapes. The method ensures stability, minimizes free‐space loss, and adapts to complex environments without additional learning, making it particularly suitable for industrial ...
