Abstract
In this paper, we describe a path planning system for virtual navigation based on a RRT combination of RRT* Goal and Limit. The propose system includes a point cloud obtained from the virtual workspace with a RGB-D sensor, an identification module for interest regions and obstacles of the environment, and a collision-free path planner based on Rapidly-exploring Random Trees (RRT) for a safe and optimal virtual navigation of UAVs in 3D spaces.
