Abstract

High-level robotic assembly planning is concerned with how bodies fit together and how spatial relationships among bodies are established over time. To generate an assembly task specification for robots, it is necessary to represent the geometric shapes of the assembly components in a computational form. The interaction between algebra and geometry within a group theoretic framework has provided a unified computational treatment of reasoning about how parts with multiple contacting features fit together.
