Stability theory has allowed us to study both qualitative and quantitative properties of
dynamical systems, and control theory has played a key role in designing numerous …

Abstract The DARPA Urban Challenge required robotic vehicles to travel more than 90 km
through an urban environment without human intervention and included situations such as …

A new interfacing method is presented to control mobile robot (s) in a supervised manner.
Mobile robots often provide global position information to an operator. This research …

In this paper, we present an obstacle avoiding smooth path planning method based on
Voronoi diagram and composite Bezier curve algorithm which obtains the curvature …

This paper presents a strategy for improving motion planning of an unmanned helicopter
flying in a dense and complex city-like environment. Although Sampling Based Motion …

In this paper, we present two near-optimal methods to determine the real-time collision-free
path for a mobile vehicle moving in a dynamically changing environment. The proposed …

Presently, mobile robots experience problems of time consumption, poor security, and high
computational complexity in global path-smoothing algorithms. This study presents a …

Parametric curves are extensively used in engineering. The most commonly used
parametric curves are, Bézier, B-splines,(NURBSs), and rational Bézier. Each and every one …

We present two examples of how human-like behavior can be implemented in a model of
computer player to improve its characteristics and decision-making patterns in video game …

We present an obstacle avoiding path planning method based on a Voronoi diagram. We
use a tactical visibility measure to obtain the shortest path length with the lowest local …
