Abstract

This paper presents a multiresolutional architec- ture of planners for obstacle avoidance in outdoor mobility. The planner makes use of o -line dynam- ical simulations results to eciently nd paths that avoid obstacles. The trajectories are generated by set of steering velocity commands. An implementation of the planner was developed and tested in a vehicle at the National Institute of Standards and Technol- ogy (NIST) with promising results. This approach of building the search space for the planner results realistic cost and trajectories for the vehicle.
