Abstract

The present disclosure discloses a system and method for controlling motion of a vehicle. The method comprises collecting a signal indicative of objectives of the motion and a value of the disturbances, and minimizing an objective function subject to constraints defined by the objectives of the motion to produce optimized values of parameters of a sequence of splines. The method further comprises controlling the motion of the vehicle based on a model of differentially flat dynamics of the vehicle according to an optimal path defined by the optimized values of the parameters of the sequence of splines.
