  The aim of disseminating this research article is to introduce a novel path planner method in detail and argue that it performs as well as other offline path planners in terms of analyzing and constructing collision-free trajectories in addition to shortest possible path from start to goal configurations. Our novel path planner is able to build optimal trajectories in terms of the shortest length as well as near miss avoidance route from the initial to the goal configuration. It allows a moving point robot to make a proper transition from its assigned goal toward a collision-free path in the reasonable time frame, successfully. As an offline path planner, our planner performs the operation of analyzing the environment on static workspaces with the fixed and known initial and the goal configurations and computing optimal trajectories, using global information about the environment.
