The motion-planning problem, involving the computation of a collision-free path for a moving entity amidst obstacles, is a central problem in fields like Robotics and Game Design....
— The ballbot is a dynamically stable mobile robot that moves on a single spherical wheel and is capable of omnidirectional movement. The ballbot is an underactuated system with ...
