Systems and a method for anti-collision management of two or more robots with at least partially overlapping robotic movements are provided. The systems and method include receiving inputs from two or more single robots performing robotic operations along a trajectory defining for each robot a single swept volume. Discretized subswept volumes are created between robotic path locations for each single robot according to one or more discretization criteria such that the operation of each single robot moving along the known trajectory is controlled to allow synchronized execution of robotic operations. Only overlapping discretized subswept volumes are considered for synchronization. This enables focusing only on the relevant collision-prone areas. Deadlocks may be prevented by a look-ahead behavior. Smart synchronization methodology allows optimizing cycle time. 用于对具有至少部分地交叠的机器人移动的两个或更多个机器人进行防碰撞管理的系统和方法。所述系统和方法包括从沿着对于每个机器人限定单个扫掠体积的轨迹的执行机器人操作的两个或更多个单个机器人接收输入。根据个或更多个离散化准则在用于每个单个机器人的机器人路径位置之间创建离散化的子扫掠体积，使得沿着已知轨迹移动的
