To move through the world, mobile robots typically use a receding-horizon strategy, wherein they execute an old plan while computing a new plan to incorporate new sensor information. A plan should be dynamically feasible, meaning it obeys constraints like the robots dynamics and obstacle avoidance; it should have liveness, meaning the robot does not stop to plan so frequently that it cannot accomplish tasks; and it should be optimal, meaning that the robot tries to satisfy a user-specified cost function such as reaching a goal location as quickly as possible. Reachability-based Trajectory Design (RTD) is a planning method that can generate provably dynamically-feasible plans. However, RTD solves a nonlinear polynmial optimization program at each planning iteration, preventing optimality guarantees; furthermore, RTD can struggle with liveness because the robot must brake to a stop when the solver finds local minima or cannot find a feasible solution. This paper proposes RTD*, which certifiably finds the globally optimal plan (if such a plan exists) at each planning iteration. This method is enabled by a novel Parallelized Constrained Bernstein Algorithm (PCBA), which is a branch-and-bound method for polynomial optimization. The contributions of this paper are: the implementation of PCBA; proofs of bounds on the time and memory usage of PCBA; a comparison of PCBA to state of the art solvers; and the demonstration of PCBA/RTD* on a mobile robot. RTD* outperforms RTD in terms of optimality and liveness for real-time planning in a variety of environments with randomly-placed obstacles.

With the development of robotics, there are growing needs for real time motion planning. However, due to obstacles in the environment, the planning problem is highly non-convex, which makes it difficult to achieve real time computation using existing
non-convex optimization algorithms. This paper introduces the convex feasible set algorithm (CFS) which is a fast algorithm for non-convex optimization problems that have convex costs and non-convex constraints. The idea is to find a convex feasible set for the original problem and iteratively solve a sequence of subproblems using the convex constraints. The feasibility and the convergence of the proposed algorithm are proved in the paper. The application of this method on motion planning for mobile robots is discussed. The simulations demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.
Motion planning is an extremely well-studied problem in the robotics community, yet existing work largely falls into one of two categories: computationally efficient but with few if any safety guarantees, or able to give stronger guarantees but at hi
gh computational cost. This work builds on a recent development called FaSTrack in which a slow offline computation provides a modular safety guarantee for a faster online planner. We introduce the notion of meta-planning in which a refined offline computation enables safe switching between different online planners. This provides autonomous systems with the ability to adapt motion plans to a priori unknown environments in real-time as sensor measurements detect new obstacles, and the flexibility to maneuver differently in the presence of obstacles than they would in free space, all while maintaining a strict safety guarantee. We demonstrate the meta-planning algorithm both in simulation and in hardware using a small Crazyflie 2.0 quadrotor.
In this paper, a novel real-time acceleration-continuous path-constrained trajectory planning algorithm is proposed with an appealing built-in tradability mechanism between cruise motion and time-optimal motion. Different from existing approaches, th
e proposed approach smoothens time-optimal trajectories with bang-bang input structures to generate acceleration-continuous trajectories while preserving the completeness property. More importantly, a novel built-in tradability mechanism is proposed and embedded into the trajectory planning framework, so that the proportion of the cruise motion and time-optimal motion can be flexibly adjusted by changing a user-specified functional parameter. Thus, the user can easily apply the trajectory planning algorithm for various tasks with different requirements on motion efficiency and cruise proportion. Moreover, it is shown that feasible trajectories are computed more quickly than optimal trajectories. Rigorous mathematical analysis and proofs are provided for these aforementioned results. Comparative simulation and experimental results on omnidirectional wheeled mobile robots demonstrate the capability of the proposed algorithm in terms of flexible tunning between cruise and time-optimal motions, as well as higher computational efficiency.
Various applications of advanced air mobility (AAM) in urban environments facilitate our daily life and public services. As one of the key issues of realizing these applications autonomously, path planning problem has been studied with main objective
s on minimizing travel distance, flight time and energy cost. However, AAM operations in metropolitan areas bring safety and society issues. Because most of AAM aircraft are unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and they may fail to operate resulting in fatality risk, property damage risk and societal impacts (noise and privacy) to the public. To quantitatively assess these risks and mitigate them in planning phase, this paper proposes an integrated risk assessment model and develops a hybrid algorithm to solve the risk-based 3D path planning problem. The integrated risk assessment method considers probability and severity models of UAV impact ground people and vehicle. By introducing gravity model, the population density and traffic density are estimated in a finer scale, which enables more accurate risk assessment. The 3D risk-based path planning problem is first formulated as a special minimum cost flow problem. Then, a hybrid estimation of distribution algorithm (EDA) and risk-based A* (named as EDA-RA*) algorithm is proposed to solve the problem. To improve computational efficiency, k-means clustering method is incorporated into EDA-RA* to provide both global and local search heuristic information, which formed the EDA and fast risk-based A* algorithm we call EDA-FRA*. Case study results show that the risk assessment model can capture high risk areas and the generated risk map enables safe UAV path planning in urban complex environments.
With the development of human space exploration, the space environment is gradually filled with abandoned satellite debris and unknown micrometeorites, which will seriously affect capture motion of space robot. Hence, a novel fast collision-avoidance
trajectory planning strategy for a dual-arm free-floating space robot (FFSR) with predefined-time pose feedback will be mainly studied to achieve micron-level tracking accuracy of end-effector in this paper. However, similar to control, the exponential feedback results in larger initial joint angular velocity relative to proportional feedback. Firstly, a pose-error-based kinematic model of the FFSR will be derived from a control perspective. Then, a cumulative dangerous field (CDF) collision-avoidance algorithm is applied in predefined-time trajectory planning to achieve micron-level collision-avoidance trajectory tracking precision. In the end, a GA-based optimization algorithm is used to optimize the predefined-time parameter to obtain a motion trajectory of low joint angular velocity of robotic arms. The simulation results verify our conjecture and conclusion.
