MoveIt Pro

MoveIt Pro validates a requested robot motion against the planning-scene world model, collision geometry, and inverse-kinematics reachability, executing only a previewed, validated trajectory so a physically infeasible command never reaches the actuators.

Description

MoveIt Pro is PickNik's platform for building robotic-arm applications on top of MoveIt. Motion is planned against a planning scene that is the source of truth for the robot and its environment, collisions are checked by default, and a ValidateTrajectory step fails if a planned path collides before execution.

Solution

Sits between an agent/operator's commanded goal and the robot actuators, planning against a world model and executing only a validated, previewed trajectory.

Primary use cases

  • Building robotic-arm manipulation applications that reject infeasible motions
  • Collision-aware free-space motion planning
  • Operator-approved teleoperated motion with previewed trajectories
