Local Variation Method to Determine Cheap Path for Nonholonomic Systems

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: CISM Courses and Lectures ((CISM,volume 487))

Abstract

In this paper a local variation method is proposed to determine a cheap path for nonholonomic motion planning. It can be used as a preliminary step in motion planning to find the path to be followed with the minimal control effort. The algorithm based on the method is detailed and parameters that influence its work discussed. Simulations performed on the unicycle mobile robot confirm efficiency of the method.
