文摘The current motion planning approaches for redundant manipulators mainly includes two categories: improved gradient-projection method and some other efficiency numerical methods. The former is excessively sensitive to parameters, which makes adjustment difficult; and the latter treats the motion planning as general task by ignoring the particularity, which has good universal property but reduces the solving speed for on-line real-time planning.

Firstly, the posture tracking of end-effector is achieved accurately by employing the non-redundant joint. Secondly, the end-effector is set to keep stationary.
