Summary

The need to store the trajectory information required by industrial robots, so that they may carry out tasks such as painting, has led to various data compression methods. The method proposed, simple to implement and adaptable to low cost systems, enables a best compromise to be reached for a given application between the detailed description of a complex movement and the use of as little memory as possible. This method was first used on a hydraulic prototype for the French Master-Slave firm PHAREMME.
