Abstract
This paper presents a new method of path planning for robot manipulators. It is a local roadmap method that is based on the tangent graph in configuration space. The graph is constructed incrementally as the search progresses, removing the pre-processing overhead of other methods; also, a heuristic is used to minimise the number of tangents generated. The technique is demonstrated by a simulation for a three-link planar manipulator
