Path Planning for Industrial Robots Working Collaboratively on a Task
This research is part of my Master’s thesis.
Objective:
To develop offline-coordination planning techniques for multi-robot systems with partially shared workspaces that enables them to allocate and perform manufacturing tasks in a time-effective and computationally efficient manner.

Conclusion:
The path planning technique developed and simulated led to a massive 60% improvement in production efficiency for various industrial automation applications such as welding, painting, material handling, and manufacturing operations.
This was a rather quick overview of the research. I did not put in a lot of equations, methodology or anything to not make it look too complex. If you are interested in learning more about this research, drop me an email and I can send you the full thesis. I also have got some even cooler animations that I can share with you.
