Abstract

In this paper the harmonic potential field (HPF) approach to motion planning is adapted to work with second order mechanical systems. The extension is based on a novel type of dampening forces called: nonlinear, anisotropic, dampening forces (NADFs). It is shown that NADFs are effective aids for planning spatially-constrained kinodynamic trajectories for mechanical systems. Theoretical developments and simulation results are provided in the paper.
