Abstract

Methods and systems for improved control of robotic arms are presented. In one embodiment, a method is presented that includes predefining a plurality of motion primitives, which may include one or more preconditions and effects. A target state for a plurality of workpieces may be determined as well as an initial state of the plurality of workpieces. A sequence of operations may be generated based on the preconditions and/or effects of the motion primitives, as well as the target state and the initial state. Executing the sequence of operations may be capable of changing the plurality of workpieces from the initial state to the target state.
