We discuss a game theoretic approach to the design of closed loop feedback laws to solve sensor based motion planning problems for mobile robots. Our approach provides a framework for dealing with environmental uncertainty, and, by explicitly accounting for the sensor dynamics, a formal way of combining exploratory and goal directed motions. We focus on methods of devising optimal feedback laws...

An alternative approach, sometimes called the public health or “environmental” perspective, tends to focus on formal laws, policies, and practices that affect the production, distribution, sales, and marketing of alcoholic beverages, or formal mechanisms that affect the drinkers themselves, such as drunk driving laws. These prevention programs generally promote policy changes by working through...
