Abstract
A robotic system includes a manipulator assembly and a processing system. The manipulator assembly includes a first manipulator, a second manipulator, and a drivable structure. The first manipulator and the second manipulator are mechanically coupled to the drivable structure. The processing system is configured to determine a drivable structure motion for effecting a commanded motion for a first end effector of a first tool mechanically coupled to the first manipulator. Performing only the drivable structure motion would cause motion of the first end effector simultaneously with motion of a second end effector, the second end effector being of a second tool mechanically coupled to the second manipulator. The processing system is further configured to determine a movement of the second manipulator and the second tool that, when performed simultaneously with the drivable structure motion, would compensate for the motion of the second end effector.
