Synopsis

This book delves into a fundamental planning problem in robotics: how to guide a robot system through a complex environment without colliding with obstacles. It focuses specifically on systems with multiple degrees of freedom, where each component can move independently. The author presents a novel approach to solving this problem, breaking it down into smaller, more manageable sub-problems. By analyzing the geometry of the robot system and its environment, the author establishes a systematic method for decomposing the planning problem, allowing for efficient computation of a collision-free path. This work expands the realm of robotic motion planning, offering a deeper understanding of how systems with multiple degrees of freedom can navigate complex environments effectively.
