Additional Resources

The video linked below, from the Freie Universität Berlin, is a wonderful visualization of a 3D configuration space. The video starts off with a rather complicated configuration space (to show the end result), but then steps through how it is built. First, it will display different types of motion around one obstacle, and then describe how these motions map into the 3D configuration space, and finally introduce additional obstacles to create the final configuration space.
