Approximate motion planning and the complexity of the boundary of the union of simple geometric figures
1990
Proceedings of the sixth annual symposium on Computational geometry - SCG '90
Similar results for the union of other simple geometric figures such as triangles and wedges are also presented. ...
We show further that the complexity (= number of vertices) of the boundary of n bow-ties (c.f. Figure 1.1) is O(n). ...
We also show complexity bounds for the free space defined by other simple geometric figures, e.g. wedges and triangles, which we believe to be of independent interest. ...

Deep Neural Networks for Swept Volume Prediction Between Configurations
[article]
2018
arXiv
pre-print
Second, in sampling-based motion planning, SV is an ideal distance metric, because it correlates to the likelihood of success of the expensive local planning step between two sampled configurations. ...
Results for two robots, a 6 degree of freedom (DOF) rigid body and a 7 DOF fixed-based manipulator, indicate that the network estimations are very close to the true size of SV and is more than 1500 times ...
SV is useful in many applications such as geometric modeling [6] , robot workspace analysis [2] , collision avoidance [11] and motion planning [16] . ...

Efficient geometrical obstacle reshaping for inevitable collision states avoidance
2009
2008 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Biomimetics
Classical motion planners and most of navigation routines discard dynamics of the system and therefore fail in some special conditions. ...
Deformed state space is then fed into the planner and navigation unit in order to move the vehicle, safely. Bounded complexity of the algorithm makes it proper to be used in realtime applications. ...

For a simple approximation of the swept volume, a sequence of unions may be applied to densely sampled instances of a moving object along its motion trajectory. ...
When we make a union of two alternative approximations of a Minkowski sum, we get a smoother boundary of the Minkowski sum. Figures 26 and 27 illustrate how this approach works. ...
