چکیده

For a robot trying to reach places in at least partially unknown environments there is often a need to replan paths online based on information extracted from the surroundings. In this paper is is assumed that the sensing range of the robot is short compared to the length of the paths it plans and the environment is modeled as a graph consisting of nodes and arcs. The replanning problem is solved using the network simplex method . The applicability of the planner is demonstrated by integrating it with a navigation control strategy. Simulation results show that the approach works well.

Mobile Robot Online Motion Planning Using Generalized Voronoi Graphs

In this paper, a new online robot motion planner is developed for systematically exploring unknown environ¬ments by intelligent mobile robots in real-time applications. The algorithm takes advantage of sensory data to find an obstacle-free start-to-goal path. It does so by online calculation of the Generalized Voronoi Graph (GVG) of the free space, and utilizing a combination of depth-first an...

A Novel Method for Path Planning of Mobile Robots via Fuzzy Logic and ant Colony Algorithem in Complex Daynamic Environments

Researches on mobile robot path planning with meta-heuristic methods to improve classical approaches have grown dramatically in the recent 35 years. Because routing is one of the NP-hard problems, an ant colony algorithm that is a metaheuristic method has had no table success in this area. In this paper, a new approach for solving mobile robot navigation in dynamic environments, based on the he...

A Navigation and Obstacle Avoidance Algorithm for Mobile Robots Operating in Unknown, Maze-Type Environments

This paper describes two complementary algorithms developed for mobile robots operating within unknown, maze-type environments. The first is an environmental mapping and navigation algorithm which ensures complete coverage of a maze with apriori unknown wall locations, and the second a stochastic learning automaton approach for general obstacle avoidance within the maze. The environmental mappi...
