Search-Based Spatiotemporal and Multi-Robot Motion Planning on Graphs of Space-Time Convex Sets

arXiv:2607. 00444v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Spatiotemporal motion planning, especially in multi-robot settings, requires robots to reason about collision-free regions that change over time, which is challenging in continuous spaces when feasible regions are transient and geometrically constrained.
