Minimum-snap Trajectories

Minimum-Snap Trajectories is a trajectory optimization method that generates smooth, dynamically feasible paths for robotic systems by minimizing the integral of the fourth derivative of position (snap) over time, thereby distinguishing itself from other trajectory generation techniques through its emphasis on higher-order continuity and energy efficiency.
