Bspline

B-spline (Basis Spline) — a piecewise polynomial curve defined by control points and a knot vector, providing local control (moving one control point only affects nearby curve segments). B-splines are used in robot trajectory planning for their numerical stability, smoothness, and ability to satisfy velocity and acceleration boundary conditions.
