SUMMARY The paper describes a skiing robot that is capable of skiing autonomously on a ski slope. The robot uses carving skiing technique. Based on a complex sensory system it is capable of autonomously navigating on the ski slope, avoiding obstacles, and maintaining a stable position during skiing on an unknown ski slope. The robot was tested using simulation in a virtual reality environment as well as on a ski slope.
