Path Finding Pt1
I started to look into some algorithms for path finding in known environments in order to provide a navigation map based on waypoints in order to reach any given target position within the environment. The aim is to allow a robotic system to navigate from it's current position to a given target position avoiding obstructions within it's workspace. The obstructions are known and pre-defined in the system, the obstructions are specified as simple rectangular shapes that define the extents of where the robot cannot move (i.e. it can move right up to the edge of the specified rectangle without collision).
