A real-time robot collision avoidance safety system

A data structure and update algorithm are presented for a prototype real-time collision avoidance safety system supporting tele-operated robot arms. The data structure is a variant of the octree, which serves as a spatial index. An octree recursively decomposes three dimensional space into eight equ...
