Trajectory planning of industrial robots for 3-D visualization a ROS-based simulation framework

This paper presents a trajectory generation and data collection scheme for the 3-D visualization of geometric parts by an industrial manipulator. The implementation of the proposed scheme consists of a simulation environment constituting by a set of state-of-the-art software libraries and tools. Experimental results, obtained with a five DOF augmented SCARA industrial robot manipulator, show the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.
