Abstract— This paper presents a novel methodology for detecting collisions of cylindrically shaped rigid bodies moving in three dimensions. This algorithm uses line geometry and ...
A new extremal distance tracking algorithm is presented for parametric curves and surfaces undergoing rigid body motion. The essentially geometric extremization problem is transfo...
Many algorithms have been proposed that create a path for a robot in an environment with obstacles. Most methods are aimed at finding a solution. However, for many applications, ...
While most previous work in planning manipulation tasks relies on the assumption of quasi-static conditions, there can be situations where the quasi-static assumption may not hold...
— The configuration space of a robot is partitioned into free space and C-obstacle space. Most of the prior work in collision detection and motion planning algorithms is targete...
