Sensor‐based obstruction avoidance technique for a mobile robot

Abstract This article describes a sensor‐based obstruction avoidance technique. This technique, if implemented on the on‐board computer of a mobile robot, would enable the robot to move through an unknown environment. The proposed approach is driven by sensory data. The robot thus senses and adapts to the changes in the environment. The software also does path planning. As more information about the environment is obtained the robot's path planning capabilities improve. Illustrative examples are used to describe the algorithms.
