Online planning satisfying constraints

This invention describes a system for guiding a robot through a task in a changing environment. The robot first gets a plan to achieve its goal while following specific rules. As it moves, it watches for changes around it. If something changes, the robot quickly creates a new plan on the fly to adapt, ensuring it still meets its goal and follows all the rules. This re-planning can happen multiple times as the environment continues to change.

Why it matters: Filed before significant advancements in real-time AI and machine learning for dynamic motion planning. The ability to quickly generate robust updated motion plans for robots in changing environments has improved considerably since 2022, making the online planning modules more feasible and efficient.
