Motion planning in complex tasks is hard and still done via slow, explicit, traditional planners. We present a generalist Neural Motion Planner -- a single neural network that plans complex dynamic motions quickly and accurately at test time. Building upon our lab's sim2real efforts, the key idea is to create many complex scenes in simulation and then distill classical motion planner trajectories into a single reactive neural network policy.
