Method of producing traps in a print page

Traps are produced at color boundaries in a print page that is present in the form of run-length encoded image data, by way of distance mapping. Distances of the run lengths to an adjacent color are determined without decoding the run lengths into a pixel matrix, and the traps are produced on the basis of the distances thus determined. For this purpose, distance vectors are determined for the starting point and for the end point of a run length. The distance vectors are in each case recalculated from the comparison with the distance vectors of adjacent run lengths. The new values of the distance vectors replace the previous values of the distance vectors if the magnitudes of the distances of the new values are less than the magnitudes of the distances of the previous values.

CAD or sensor data depicting obstacles in a robot workspace are converted to voxels, and a three-dimensional binary matrix of voxel occupancy is created. A corresponding distance map matrix is then computed, wherein each cell in the distance map matrix contains a distance to a nearest occupied cell. The distance map matrix is used as a constraint function in a motion planning optimization problem, wherein the optimization problem is convexified and then iteratively solved to yield a robot motion profile which avoids the obstacles and minimizes an objective function such as distance traveled. The distance field optimization technique is quickly computed and has a computation time which is independent of the number of obstacles. The disclosed optimization technique is easy to set up, as it requires no creation of geometry primitives to approximate robot and obstacle shapes.
