Collision Avoidance for Nonholonomic Mobile Robots Among Unpredictable Dynamic Obstacles Including Humans
Abstract
In many service applications, mobile robots need to share their work areas with obstacles. Avoiding collisions is a fundamental requirement for these robots. In this paper a novel collision avoidance system is developed for avoiding unpredictable dynamic obstacles, including humans. The collision avoidance algorithm is based on the virtual force field (VFF) concept. The velocities of the obstacles are used in addition to their positions to …
