The visible capability is critical in many robot applications, such as inspection and surveillance, etc. Without the assurance of the visibility to targets, some tasks end up not being complete or even failing. In this paper, we propose a visibility guaranteed planner by star-convex constrained optimization. The visible space is modeled as star convex polytope (SCP) by nature and is generated by f...
