Methods and apparatus relating to FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array) based acceleration in robot motion planning are described. In an embodiment, logic circuitry (such as an FPGA), coupled to a processor, accelerates one or more motion planning operations for a plurality of objects. A first memory, coupled to the logic circuitry, stores data corresponding to a plurality of Oriented Bounding Boxes (OBBs). The plurality of OBBs are to provide Bounding Volume (BV) models for the plurality of objects. Other embodiments are also disclosed and claimed.
