Abstract

Hao, L.; Ma, G., and Dong, J., 2020. Path planning method of anti-collision for the operation road of port cargo handling robot. In: Yang, Y.; Mi, C.; Zhao, L., and Lam, S. (eds.), Global Topics and New Trends in Coastal Research: Port, Coastal and Ocean Engineering. Journal of Coastal Research, Special Issue No. 103, pp. 892–895. Coconut Creek (Florida), ISSN 0749-0208.The traditional path planning method of anti-collision for port cargo handling robot still has many collision phenomena, so a path planning method of anti-collision for port cargo handling robot is designed. Firstly, the running path node of the port cargo handling robot is selected, the moving coordinate system of the port cargo handling robot is established, and then the turning range of the robot is determined. Finally, the running path of the port cargo handling robot is planned by ant colony algorithm. Experiments show that the collision times of this design method is small, which proves that the robot running path designed in this design has practical significance.
