    📅 2000🏛 Proceedings of the 2000 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA), vol. 2, pp. 995-1001, DOI: 10.1109/ROBOT.2000.844730
    Problem

    This paper introduces RRT-Connect, an efficient motion planning method for high-dimensional spaces that speeds up convergence.

    Method

    RRT-Connect builds two random trees from the start and goal positions, attempting to connect them to find a path faster than standard RRT.

    Finding

    RRT-Connect significantly reduces planning time compared to standard RRT, making it highly effective for single-query problems.

    Limitations

    The method may struggle in highly cluttered environments and does not guarantee convergence.

    Practical application

    RRT-Connect is used in many industrial and service robot arm planning systems. In the finger robot project, it can plan finger trajectories toward keyboard keys.
