Abstract
This paper proposes a proper combination of on the one hand a local time-optimal path planner fulfilling the basic kinematic and dynamic constraints of wheeled vehicles, and on the other hand, a continuous and bounded curvature derivative Bézier closed-form metrics. As a result of this, a nearly time-optimal path with continuous and bounded curvature profile will be generated, if possible, to connect two configurations while avoiding obstacles.
