Description
Summary:A swept volume strategy to detect the collision distances between obstacles is presented in this paper for robot motion planning based on optimization technique. The strategy utilizes the recursive quadratic programming optimization method to perform the motion planning problem. This paper is based on segmental swept volume for convenient distance-to-contact calculation. Hermite interpolation is presented to approach the envelope bounding the swept volume. The new method is capable of handling a modestly non-convex swept volume and it has yielded accurate answers in distance calculations. Also, examples would be presented to illustrate and demonstrate this approach in the paper.
