Abstract

The motion planning of industrial robot plays an important role in today's production systems, such as Made in China 2025 and Industry 4.0. The motion planning under uncertain condition is an important research topic in autonomous robots. For promoting the ability of motion planning to adapt to the environment change, in this paper, we propose a deep reinforcement learning (DRL) method which combines reinforcement learning with deep learning for industrial robot motion planning. Our work shows that the DRL-agent is capable of learning how to control the robot to successfully reach robotic tasks without explicit prior Knowledge of kinematics. We conclude that DRL has great potential for industrial robots and production systems, especially in robot motion planning.
