Exercise 1 - The art of not crashing

This exercise aims to enhance our understanding of control techniques and obstacle avoidance algorithms.

Solutions

Learnings from each solution

Visual representation of sim

Practical video

Exercise 2 - Local navigation

Artificial potential fields

Motivation

Our motivation for choosing the artificial potential field algorithm lies in its effectiveness for real-time obstacle avoidance and smooth navigation. This approach enables our robot to dynamically maneuver around obstacles by leveraging attractive and repulsive forces, ensuring efficient path planning.

Solutions

Learnings from each solution

Visual representation of sim

Pros and cons

Dynamic window approach

Motivation

Our motivation for choosing the Dynamic Window Approach (DWA) method is its ability to optimize both velocity and trajectory in real-time for safe and efficient navigation. This algorithm allows our robot to dynamically adjust its path by considering its kinematic constraints and the surrounding obstacles, ensuring precise and responsive movement.
