How do I simulate a tele-operated arm?

Open this page and use the live RRT Path Planning tool below — set your inputs and the simulation runs instantly in your browser using real numerics. No install, no account needed.

Yes. The simulation runs free in your browser. A one-time unlock or a Pro plan adds advanced parameters, saved presets, data import, and clean exports.

Can I use my own numbers?

Absolutely — every input is adjustable, and with data import you can drive a tele-operated arm from your own measurements.

Step size

A Rapidly-exploring Random Tree grows toward random points in free space, quickly filling the map and snaking around obstacles to connect start (blue) to goal (yellow). It is a cornerstone of motion planning for robot arms, self-driving cars, and drones — fast even in high dimensions where grid search fails.

Governing equation

x_{n e w} = x_{n e a r} + ε \frac{x _{r an d} - x _{n e a r}}{∥ x _{r an d} - x _{n e a r} ∥}, ε = 18, N = 0

Reading this result: No path yet at step 18 — the tree ran out of iterations before reaching the goal. Try Replan or a smaller step.

About this simulation

The full RRT Path Planning tool models a tele-operated arm with the same numerics engineers and scientists use — running entirely client-side. Change any parameter and the result updates in real time, so you can build intuition, check a design, or teach the concept without spreadsheets or installs.
