Description
Summary:This paper discusses automatic path planning for tower crane lifting in highly complex environments to be digitized using point cloud representation. A mathematical optimization technique is developed to identify the lifting path with GPU accelerated massively parallel genetic algorithm. A continuous collision detection method is designed for real time application of collision avoidance during the crane lifting process.
