Kinematic Constrained RRT Algorithm with Post Waypoint Shift for the Shortest Path Planning of Wheeled Mobile Robots by Sisi Liu, Zhan Zhao, Jun Wei, Qianqian Zhou

“…Once the distance between the new node and the target is within a certain threshold, the tree growth stops and a target connection based on minimum turning radius arc is proposed to generate an initial complete random path. The most significant difference from traditional RRT-based methods is that the proposed method optimizes the path based on Dubins curves through a post waypoint shift after a random path is generated, rather than through parent node selection and rewiring during the exploring tree growth. …”
