I created a small KMP library implementing Dubins path in an object oriented way, open-sourcing the library in case anyone else ever needs it.
The Dubins path is commonly used in the fields of robotics and control theory as a way to plan paths for wheeled robots, airplanes and underwater vehicles.
In the future I want to implement Continuous Curvature, which is needed for a gradually increasing steering angle like the turning of a steering wheel.

Interesting, I may even have a use for it in #science

@altavir Nice to hear! For my own project I need the continuous curvature feature, so I'm looking further into that.
The java/kotlin ecosystem in these subjects seems to be quite limited, so it might be challenging.

We plan to add more advanced geometry features in KMath. But do not have time for it yet. Maybe it should be in a separate project.

@altavir Looking forward to that! Feel free to fork/steal/copy/base code off this library if you want. Or ofcourse create a PR.
