Abstract
Methods, apparatus, systems, and computer readable media are provided for generating phase synchronized trajectories for actuators of a robot to enable the actuators of the robot to transition from a current motion state to a target motion state. Phase synchronized trajectories produce motion of a reference point of the robot in a one-dimensional straight line in a multi-dimensional space. For example, phase synchronized trajectories of a plurality of actuators that control the movement of an end effector may cause a reference point of the end effector to move in a straight line in Cartesian space. In some implementations, phase synchronized trajectories may be generated and utilized even when those phase synchronized trajectories are less time-optimal than one or more other non-phase synchronized trajectories.
