Path planningRelated API functionsV-REP's path planning module allows handling path planning tasks in 3D-space, and in 2D-space for vehicles with non-holonomic motion constraints. Following figures illustrate some path planning examples in V-REP: [(1) holonomic path planning, (2) non-holonomic path planning] A path planning task usually takes several input values or parameters: A path linking the start configuration to the goal configuration can be specified (or restricted to be) in a configuration space with a specific number of dimensions (e.g. the X, Y configuration space). Moreover additional constraints are usually needed that make the task more complicated (e.g. keeping a certain distance threshold to the obstacles, or moving only in one direction).
