Robot Collision Avoidance Using Programming through Imitation

This paper deals with the collision avoidance of the cooperative robots using the programming through imitation. Each physical robot acts fully independently, communicating with corresponding virtual prototype and imitating her behaviour. Each physical robot reproduces the motion of her virtual prototype. The estimation of the collision-free actions of the virtual cooperative robots and the transfer of the virtual joint trajectories to the physical robots who imitate there virtual prototypes, are the original ideas. We tested the present strategy on several simulation scenarios, involving two virtual robots and estimating collision-free actions, during of the cooperative tasks.
