Path planning for mobile robot based on the two-dot method

Caihong Li · 2005

Ultrasonic sensors have been used to detect the distances of obstacles and the target in the environment. So the overall model of the environment need not be built. Furthermore, a new path planning method, i.e. two-dot method, is also discussed. This method is simple and its computation is fast. It owns to local path planning, but it can avoid the dead decking of the tradition methods. At last the method has been tested for obstacles' avoidance and road following in simulated and actual environments. The results prove that the method is feasible and robust.
