Path planning algorithm of mobile robot using neural network model

신경회로망 모델을 이용한 이동로봇의 경로생성 알고리즘

The most important topic in research of mobile robot is path planning in order to avoid with obstacle. In this study the path planning algorithm using a neural network model is proposed. The inputs of neural network are range data which are acquired form laser range finderm and weights are based on difference with goal direction. The thresholds are made by consdiering the marginal distance between mobile robot and obstacle. Consequently the outputs are obtained by multiplying input and weight. The obtained heading directiion enables the mobile robot to approach the goal, without any collision with obstacles around. The effectiveness of the this method of real-time navigation of a mobile robot is estimated by computer simulation in complex environment.
