Abstract
This paper discusses the emerging field of robotics, particularly focusing on motion planning for robotic manipulators. It highlights the need for simplification and standardization in robot implementation processes. Among several tools available, the paper focuses on the MoveIt tool due to its compatibility, popularity, and community contributions. However, the paper acknowledges some resistance in developing new applications with MoveIt, especially for researchers and beginners. To address this, the paper introduces an efficient, modular action server for interacting with the MoveIt framework. This pipeline simplifies parameter reconfiguration and provides a general solution for the motion planning problem. It can calculate trajectories for robotic manipulators without environmental collisions using a single server request and supports operation in different modes. The server was tested on an Universal Robots UR10 manipulator, demonstrating its ability to quickly plan paths for two test operations: an object pick-and-place mission and a collision avoidance test. The results were positive, achieving the set goals with minimal user-server interaction. This work represents a significant step towards more efficient and user-friendly robotic manipulation.
