— In this paper we address smooth and collision-free whole-body motion planning for humanoid robots. A two-stage iterative planning framework is introduced where geometric motion...
- Motion planning is one of the key capabilities for autonomous humanoid robots. Previous researches have focused on weight balancing, collision detection, and gait generation. Mos...
Abstract— This paper provides proof-of-concept that stateof-the-art sampling-based motion planners that are tightly integrated with a physics-based simulator can compute paths th...
