Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

A robotic arm is designed to assemble parts in a factory. If the arm has 6 joints and must operate in a room filled with moving conveyor belts and static pillars, how would you use C-Space to ensure safe operations? Discuss potential strategies and limitations.

💡 Hint: Think about how you could update the map of obstacles in real-time as the robot operates.

Challenge 2 Hard

Devise a method to reduce computational complexity in a high-dimensional C-Space for a multi-joint robotic arm designed for detailed surgical procedures. What techniques would you employ?

💡 Hint: Consider focusing on the most relevant configurations and applying AI for predictive pathing.
