We integrate sampling-based planning techniques with funnel-based feedback control to develop KDF, a new framework for solving the kinodynamic motion-planning problem via funnel control. The considered systems evolve subject to complex, nonlinear, and uncertain dynamics (aka differential constraints). Firstly, we use a geometric planner to obtain a high-level safe path in a user-defined extended free space. Secondly, we develop a low-level funnel control algorithm that guarantees safe tracking of the path by the system. Neither the planner nor the control algorithm use information on the underlying dynamics of the system, which makes the proposed scheme easily distributable to a large variety of different systems and scenarios. Intuitively, the funnel control module is able to implicitly accommodate the dynamics of the system, allowing hence the deployment of purely geometrical motion planners. Extensive computer simulations and experimental results with a 6-DOF robotic arm validate the proposed approach.

For real-time multirotor kinodynamic motion planning, the efficiency of sampling-based methods is usually hindered by difficult-to-sample homotopy classes like narrow passages. In this paper, we address this issue by a hybrid scheme. We firstly propo se a fast regional optimizer exploiting the information of local environments and then integrate it into a global sampling process to ensure faster convergence. The incorporation of local optimization on different sampling-based methods shows significantly improved success rates and less planning time in various types of challenging environments. We also present a refinement module that fully investigates the resulting trajectory of the global sampling and greatly improves its smoothness with negligible computation effort. Benchmark results illustrate that compared to the state-of-the-art ones, our proposed method can better exploit a previous trajectory. The planning methods are applied to generate trajectories for a simulated quadrotor system, and its capability is validated in real-time applications.
We address the problem of planning robot motions in constrained configuration spaces where the constraints change throughout the motion. The problem is formulated as a fixed sequence of intersecting manifolds, which the robot needs to traverse in ord er to solve the task. We specify a class of sequential motion planning problems that fulfill a particular property of the change in the free configuration space when transitioning between manifolds. For this problem class, we develop the algorithm Planning on Sequenced Manifolds (PSM*) which searches for optimal intersection points between manifolds by using RRT* in an inner loop with a novel steering strategy. We provide a theoretical analysis regarding PSM*s probabilistic completeness and asymptotic optimality. Further, we evaluate its planning performance on multi-robot object transportation tasks.

This paper studies the problem of control strategy synthesis for dynamical systems with differential constraints to fulfill a given reachability goal while satisfying a set of safety rules. Particular attention is devoted to goals that become feasibl e only if a subset of the safety rules are violated. The proposed algorithm computes a control law, that minimizes the level of unsafety while the desired goal is guaranteed to be reached. This problem is motivated by an autonomous car navigating an urban environment while following rules of the road such as always travel in right lane and do not change lanes frequently. Ideas behind sampling based motion-planning algorithms, such as Probabilistic Road Maps (PRMs) and Rapidly-exploring Random Trees (RRTs), are employed to incrementally construct a finite concretization of the dynamics as a durational Kripke structure. In conjunction with this, a weighted finite automaton that captures the safety rules is used in order to find an optimal trajectory that minimizes the violation of safety rules. We prove that the proposed algorithm guarantees asymptotic optimality, i.e., almost-sure convergence to optimal solutions. We present results of simulation experiments and an implementation on an autonomous urban mobility-on-demand system.
In this paper, we introduce a new probabilistically safe local steering primitive for sampling-based motion planning in complex high-dimensional configuration spaces. Our local steering procedure is based on a new notion of a convex probabilistically safe corridor that is constructed around a configuration using tangent hyperplanes of confidence ellipsoids of Gaussian mixture models learned from prior collision history. Accordingly, we propose to expand a random motion planning graph towards a sample goal using its projection onto probabilistically safe corridors, which efficiently exploits the local geometry of configuration spaces for selecting proper steering direction and adapting steering stepsize. We observe that the proposed local steering procedure generates effective steering motion around difficult regions of configuration spaces, such as narrow passages, while minimizing collision likelihood. We evaluate the proposed steering method with randomized motion planners in a number of planning scenarios, both in simulation and on a physical 7DoF robot arm, demonstrating the effectiveness of our safety guided local planner over the standard straight-line planner.
We present Kinodynamic RRT*, an incremental sampling-based approach for asymptotically optimal motion planning for robots with linear differential constraints. Our approach extends RRT*, which was introduced for holonomic robots (Karaman et al. 2011) , by using a fixed-final-state-free-final-time controller that exactly and optimally connects any pair of states, where the cost function is expressed as a trade-off between the duration of a trajectory and the expended control effort. Our approach generalizes earlier work on extending RRT* to kinodynamic systems, as it guarantees asymptotic optimality for any system with controllable linear dynamics, in state spaces of any dimension. Our approach can be applied to non-linear dynamics as well by using their first-order Taylor approximations. In addition, we show that for the rich subclass of systems with a nilpotent dynamics matrix, closed-form solutions for optimal trajectories can be derived, which keeps the computational overhead of our algorithm compared to traditional RRT* at a minimum. We demonstrate the potential of our approach by computing asymptotically optimal trajectories in three challenging motion planning scenarios: (i) a planar robot with a 4-D state space and double integrator dynamics, (ii) an aerial vehicle with a 10-D state space and linearized quadrotor dynamics, and (iii) a car-like robot with a 5-D state space and non-linear dynamics.
