Abstract
The motion planning kernel (MPK) is a software system designed to facilitat e development, testing, and comparison of robotic and geometric reasoning a lgorithms. Examples of such algorithms include automatic path planning, gra sping, etc. The system has been designed to be open and extensible, so that new methods can be easily added and compared on the same platform.
