An RRT-Dijkstra-Based Path Planning Strategy for Autonomous Vehicles

Path planning for autonomous vehicles

In this study, we first address the problem of visibility-based target tracking for a team of mobile observers trying to track a team of mobile targets. Initially, we introduce the notion of pursuit fields for a single observer to track a single target around a corner based on the previous work. Pursuit fields are used to generate navigation strategies for a single observer. In order to account...

Path Planning for Autonomous Vehicles

Central problems in path planning are obstacle avoidance and path optimisation. The aim of our work was to investigate the efciency of an Evolution Strategy for optimising robot parameters in both respects. We chose a simple model in order to highlight the effect of evolution as an optimisation procedure. In our model the robot has to reach given goals from a given starting position. In our sim...

A Generic Path Planning Strategy for Autonomous Vehicles

Path planning is a necessary and fundamental component of any autonomous vehicle. The goal is to obtain a path that allows the vehicle to fullll its mission objectives by ensuring an eecient and safe path. Numerous path planning algorithms exist, although each is speciic to the type of vehicle that the algorithm is used on. This paper presents a path planning algorithm that is generic in nature...

Infield Path Planning for Autonomous Unloading Vehicles

In agricultural harvesting processes, the infield logistics of transporting the crop from the harvesters' tanks to a street transporter at the field border with an unloading vehicle is challenging. The harvesters have to be unloaded while driving and in time to prevent the loss of expensive process time. The path planning for the unloading vehicle has to consider the unharvested area as a dynam...
