| Abstract: |
Sampling-based motion planners
have enjoyed widespread success in the robotics community and
have fueled significant research developments. Our laboratory
has been actively involved in the development of sampling-based
planners since their conception. This talk will relate the current state-of-the-art and detail on-going work on developing planners for systems with increased physical realism by addressing difficulties that arise in handling dynamics and high-dimensional geometry. |
