Adds automated pathfinding from one arm position to another in the form of a polynomial function of the time elapsed since the robot was in the starting position.

Is there any information from where this algorithm comes from? Any math that Alex can provide?

I don't know if it's got a name or anything, but Alex did walk me through it. It's essentially just using a sixth-degree polynomial to connect the starting and ending position for each joint and reaching the maximum velocity halfway through. It's not a pathfinding-specific algorithm or anything.
