In this letter, we propose a robust and efficient quadrotor motion planning system for fast
flight in three-dimensional complex environments. We adopt a kinodynamic path searching
method to find a safe, kinodynamic feasible, and minimum-time initial trajectory in the
discretized control space. We improve the smoothness and clearance of the trajectory by a B-

and dynamic constraints efficiently utilizing the convex hull property of B-spline. Finally, by …
In this letter, we propose a robust and efficient quadrotor motion planning system for fast flight in three-dimensional complex environments. We adopt a kinodynamic path searching method to find a safe, kinodynamic feasible, and minimum-time initial trajectory in the discretized control space. We improve the smoothness and clearance of the trajectory by a B-spline optimization, which incorporates gradient information from a Euclidean distance field and dynamic constraints efficiently utilizing the convex hull property of B-spline. Finally, by representing the final trajectory as a non-uniform B-spline, an iterative time adjustment method is adopted to guarantee dynamically feasible and non-conservative trajectories. We validate our proposed method in various complex simulational environments. The competence of the method is also validated in challenging real-world tasks. We release our code as an open-source package.
