Obstacle avoidance and model‐free tracking control for home automation using bio‐inspired approach

This article proposes a control algorithm for obstacle avoidance and trajectory tracking for a redundant‐manipulator in smart‐homes. The redundancy provides dexterity and flexibility for the applications like picking, dropping, and transporting objects, tracking predefined paths while avoiding obstacles. The obstacle avoidance is one of the critical problems that need to be addressed. Our proposed algorithm, zeroing neural network with beetle...
