A motion planner of a computer system of a primary agent, e.g., an autonomous vehicle, uses reconfigurable collision detection architecture hardware to perform a collision assessment on a planning graph for the primary agent prior to execution of a motion plan. For edges on the planning graph, which represent transitions in states of the primary agent, the system sets a probability of collision with another agent, e.g., a dynamic object, in the environment based at least in part on the collision assessment. Depending on whether the goal of the primary agent is to avoid or collide with a particular dynamic object in the environment, the system then performs an optimization to identify a path in the resulting planning graph with either a relatively low or relatively high potential of a collision with the particular dynamic object. The system then causes the actuator system of the primary agent to implement a motion plan with the applicable identified path based at least in part on the optimization.
