Abstract: A method for motion planning for at least one robot includes providing a start configuration comprising at least one start position and a destination configuration comprising at least one destination position for the robot, providing a motion of at least one obstacle in the workspace of the robot, the obstacle motion defining a position of the obstacle that varies over time, and determining a motion of the robot from its start configuration to its destination configuration. The robot motion definies a position of the robot over a time period from a start time to a destination time. The robot motion is determined such that at each point in time between the start and destination times a distance between the robot and the obstacle does not fall below a predetermined threshold.
