  2. Obstacle avoidance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obstacle_avoidance

    Obstacle avoidance, in robotics, is a critical aspect of autonomous navigation and control systems. It is the capability of a robot or an autonomous system/machine to detect and circumvent obstacles in its path to reach a predefined destination. This technology plays a pivotal role in various fields, including industrial automation, self ...

  3. Velocity obstacle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Velocity_obstacle

    The velocity obstacle VO AB for a robot A, with position x A, induced by another robot B, with position x B and velocity v B.. In robotics and motion planning, a velocity obstacle, commonly abbreviated VO, is the set of all velocities of a robot that will result in a collision with another robot at some moment in time, assuming that the other robot maintains its current velocity. [1]

  4. Allen (robot) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allen_(robot)

    The lowest layer of control makes sure that the robot does not come into contact with other objects." [2] Due to this layer it could avoid static and dynamic obstacles, but it could not move. It sat in the middle of the room, waiting for obstruction. When the obstruction came, Allen ran away, avoiding collisions as it went.

  5. Mobile robot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_robot

    The requirements could be dead reckoning, tactile and proximity sensing, triangulation ranging, collision avoidance, position location and other specific applications. [6] Actuators usually refer to the motors that move the robot can be wheeled or legged. To power a mobile robot usually we use DC power supply (which is battery) instead of AC.

  6. Motion planning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motion_planning

    A basic motion planning problem is to compute a continuous path that connects a start configuration S and a goal configuration G, while avoiding collision with known obstacles. The robot and obstacle geometry is described in a 2D or 3D workspace, while the motion is represented as a path in (possibly higher-dimensional) configuration space.

  7. Autonomous robot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autonomous_robot

    An autonomous robot is a robot that acts without recourse to human control. Historic examples include space probes. Modern examples include self-driving vacuums and cars.

  8. Hans Moravec - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hans_Moravec

    He then earned a PhD in computer science from Stanford University in 1980 for a TV-equipped robot which was remote controlled by a large computer (the Stanford Cart [2]). The robot was able to negotiate cluttered obstacle courses. Another achievement in robotics was the discovery of new approaches for robot spatial representation such as 3D ...

  9. Subsumption architecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subsumption_architecture

    For example, a robot's lowest layer could be "avoid an object". The second layer would be "wander around", which runs beneath the third layer "explore the world". Because a robot must have the ability to "avoid objects" in order to "wander around" effectively, the subsumption architecture creates a system in which the higher layers utilize the ...
