This work presents a solution to the two-point Hermite interpolation problem using Bernstein polynomials. The Hermite interpolation problem is of particular interest in aerospace applications where boundary conditions for trajectories often specify derivative constraints. In the examples shown, a trajectory will be generated between an initial condition and a final condition. For example, a trajectory is generated that connects an aircraft’s current position and velocity with a point on the runway at a desired landing velocity. The numerical stability of the proposed algorithms is analyzed empirically.
