Abstract
The problem of movement coordination in large DoF (Degree of Freedom) robots is complex due to redundancies. In this regard, Dynamic Movement Primitive (DMP) is a useful planning technique, inspired by biology, that can be used to store and reproduce trajectories about every DoF. This work is a preliminary study that aims to understand and quantify the influence of the robot dynamics upon the performance of DMP in a simulated 2DoF robot arm. The investigation demonstrates that the effect of the robot body dynamics needs to be taken into account during the learning process of the DMP.
