In this paper we present a novel strategy for reactive collision-free feasible motion planning for robotic manipulators operating inside an environment populated by moving obstacles. The proposed strategy embeds the Dynamical System (DS) based obstacle avoidance algorithm into a constrained non-linear optimization problem following the Model Predictive Control (MPC) approach. The solution of the p...
