====================================== IROS 2011 Tutorial: Motion Planning for Real Robots ====================================== Date and Format: Full day tutorial on Sunday, September 25, 2011 at IROS 2011 in San Francisco. Tutorial Website: http://www.willowgarage.com/workshop/2011/iros_motion_planning_tutorial Registration ------------------ If you are interested in attending this tutorial, please provide us some more information using the form here: http://www.kavrakilab.org/iros2011tutorial.html. Please note that this is not the official tutorial registration; you still need to register for the tutorial at the conference registration site. Abstract ------------- This full-day tutorial will teach both novice and experienced participants how to setup, configure and use motion planning on a real robot. Novice users can expect to learn how to set up, configure and execute the perceptual, kinematic, planning and execution components required for motion planning on an advanced multiple degree of freedom robot. Expert users will be able to explore the motion planners in more details, focusing on how they can be reconfigured for particular tasks. The tutorial will be based on a set of tools within the OMPL (Open Motion Planning Library) and ROS (Robot Operating System) software. The participants will have access to simulated environments and real robots (the Willow Garage PR2 robots) for a hands-on experience in using motion planning with real robots. The tutorial will conclude with an examination of case studies based on suggestions from the participants and organizers, highlighting how the motion planners can be configured for particular robots or motion planning scenarios.
