With the success of randomized sampling-based motion planners such as probabilistic roadmap methods, much work has been done to design new sampling techniques and distributions. To date, there is no sampling technique that outperforms all other techniques for all motion planning problems. Instead, each proposed technique has different strengths and weaknesses. However, little work has been done to...
Motion planning for closed-chain systems is particularly difficult due to additional closure constraints placed on the system. In fact, the probability of randomly selecting a set of joint angles that satisfy the closure constraints is zero. We propose planning with reachable distance (PRD) to overcome this challenge by first precomputing the subspace satisfying the closure constraints, then directly...
Tree-based path planners have been shown to be well suited to solve various high dimensional motion planning problems. Here we present a variant of the Rapidly-Exploring Random Tree (RRT) path planning algorithm that is able to explore narrow passages or difficult areas more effectively. We show that both workspace obstacle information and C-space information can be used when deciding which direction...
